Molecular geometery is tetrahedral now look below Cl l H-C-Cl l Cl Now if you look at it you need to find of the geometry has a dipole moment, if it does then that means that it is polar. Well the clorines have the same electronegativity, so there pull on each other will cancel each other out. Now look at the H Cl Hydrogen has a less electronegativity than Clorine so its gonna pull the electrons from the H to the clorine resulting in a pull of the toward the Cl meaning it is polar. Consider carbon tetracloride CCl4 is that polar or non-polar, you might be able to use what I said to find the answer.

Is CHCl3 polar bond?
I think you have a typo in your molecular formula but CH3Cl is a polar molecule and CCL4 is a non-polar molecule
Is Cl3 polar or nonpolar?
CHCl3 is a polar molecule. Its electron and molecular geometries are both tetrahedral, yet the Chlorine atoms are more electronegative than the Hydrogen atom, making the molecule polar.
Is carbon tetrachloride or chloroform more polar?
CCl4 is not polar. But CHCl3 is polar.
What is the molecular geometry or shape of chloroform CHCl3?
The molecular geometry is tetrahedral. The orbitals are sp^3 hybridized. The molecule is polar. The bond angles are 109.47 degrees.
What kind of chemical bond is chloroform?
ChCl3 is a polar compound. There are polar and non polar bonds.
What is structure of chloroform?
CHCl3 is the structure. There are polar bonds.
What is color of chloroform?
CHCl3 is a polar compound. it hasn't a color.
What chemicals is the most non-polar c2h5oh pcl5 or chcl3?
PCl5
Is CCl4 polar or non pollar?
No. The individual bonds are polar, but the molecule as a whole is symmetric and therefore nonpolar.
What is the name of this molecule CHCl3?
It is known as trichloromethane or, more commonly, chloroform.
Is water a polar or nonpolar molecule?
A polar molecule
Is A polar molecule an ion?
No a molecule is a molecule, polar or nonpolar.
