All heteroatomic molecules are polar it depends on the structure of overall molecule to know whether the whole molecule is polar or not, water is polar cuz dipole between Hydrogen and Oxygen and that between Oxygen and lone pair don't cancel each other.

What polar molecules are attracted to water?
Hydrophobic molecules do not dissolve in water. This is because water is hydrophilic. Another way to say this is that lipids, which are nonpolar, cannot dissolve in water, which in polar.
Why is nonpolar oxygen soluble in polar water?
Because nonpolar oxygen is has a much greater electronegativity and oxygen and water go well.
What property do all lipids share?
There all hydrophobic,meaning water fearing.They are nonpolar, which means they do not dissolve in water.
Why doesnt oil dissolve in ocean water?
The reason why oil doesn't dissolve in ocean water is because oil is nonpolar and water is polar.
Is watar a polar or nonpolar?
Water is polar
What type of compound will not dissolve in water?
A) nonpolar compounds will not dissolve in water because water is polar
Nonpolar molecule that is not soluble in water?
Lipid are nonpolar molecules that is not soluble in water.

Is vitamin A nonpolar?
Yes, vitamin A is a type of nonpolar molecule. Like other nonpolar molecules, it is insoluble in water and soluble in fat.
What Can Water Not Dissolve?
While ionic compounds and polar molecules dissolve the best in water, nonpolar molecules do not. Example of a such nonpolar substance: oil. Oil forms clumps or beads in water because the nonpolar molescules are shoved together. Why? The water molecules are more attracted to each other than to the nonpolar molecules.
Is water a nonpolar compound?
no... water is a polar compound
What type of molicule is water?
nonpolar
Why is nonpolar oxygen soluble in polar water?

Why doesnt oil dissolve in ocean water?
The reason why oil doesn't dissolve in ocean water is because oil is nonpolar and water is polar.
Why iodine is more soluble in cl but less soluble in water?
Iodine is not soluble in water because iodine is nonpolar and water is polar. According to the "Like dissolve like" expression, nonpolar substances are soluble with nonpolar substances and polar substances are soluble with polar substances, but nonpolar substances are not soluble with polar substances.
Is human skin polar or nonpolar?
It is polar. That is why water sticks to your skin, unlike wax, a nonpolar substance.
