Is CH2 polar?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking whether the molecule CH2 is polar or nonpolar. To determine this, we need to consider the molecular structure and the electronegativity of the atoms involved.

Answer

non-polar

The final answer is non-polar.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is non-polar.

More Information

CH2 is non-polar because it has a symmetrical structure and the C-H bonds have similar electronegativity values.

Tips

A common mistake is to assume that any molecule with an uneven number of atoms must be polar. Ensure to consider the molecule's geometry and the electronegativities of the involved atoms.
