Always Polar

CF2Br2 is a nonpolar molecule because the dipole moments of the individual C-F and C-Br bonds cancel each other out due to the molecule's symmetrical tetrahedral structure.
The SF4I2 molecule is nonpolar because the individual dipole moments of the SF4 and I2 molecules cancel each other out due to the symmetry of the molecule, resulting in a net dipole moment of zero.
The molecule CH3Cl (chloromethane) is polar due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and chlorine. Chlorine is more electronegative than carbon, causing a partial negative charge on the chlorine atom and a partial positive charge on the carbon atom.
PI3 is a polar molecule due to the uneven distribution of electron density caused by the lone pairs on the central phosphorus atom and the three iodine atoms. This results in a net dipole moment for the molecule, making it polar.
ICl5 is a nonpolar molecule because the chlorine atoms surrounding the central iodine atom are symmetrical, canceling out any dipole moments.
A weak acid is an acid that only partially dissociates in solution, resulting in a small concentration of hydronium ions. This leads to a lower acidity compared to strong acids and a higher pH.
