Question

what are polar and non polar solvents?

Answer 1

Polar solvents have large dipole moments (aka “partial charges”); they contain bonds between atoms with very different electronegativities, such as oxygen and hydrogen. Non polar solvents contain bonds between atoms with similar electronegativities, such as carbon and hydrogen (think hydrocarbons, such as gasoline).

Answer 2

Polar molecules Non-polar molecules

1.Molecules in which dipole moment is not ‘zero’ are called polar solvents.
Example: NaCl, HF, H2O…etc
They does not posses any symmetry.

1.Molecules in which dipole moment is ‘zero’ are called non-polar solvents.Example: CCl4, H2, Cl2, O2…etc
