Jordanthis is an example of a geometric isomer and can be polar or non polar depending on its arrangement. It the like elements are on the same side then it is polar because both of the Cl represent a polar bond, and would pull the entire molecule toward them. If they are across from each other, transverse, the molecule will not be polar because the polar forces oppose each other.

Which intermolecular force found in CCl2H2 is the strongest?
The strongest intermolecular force in CCl2H2 (dichloromethane) is dipole-dipole interactions. This is because dichloromethane has polar bonds due to the difference in electronegativity between carbon and chlorine, resulting in a permanent dipole moment.
Is toothpaste non-polar?
Toothpaste is typically a mixture of polar and non-polar substances. The surfactants in toothpaste are usually polar, while other ingredients such as thickeners and abrasives can be non-polar.
Is the following combinations expected to be soluble or insoluble polar solute and non-polar solvent?
A polar solute is expected to be soluble in a non-polar solvent. This is because "like dissolves like" – polar molecules tend to dissolve in polar solvents, and non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents.
What happen when a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent?
When a non-polar solute is mixed in a non-polar solvent, they will easily dissolve in each other due to their similar polarities. The solute molecules will distribute evenly throughout the solvent, forming a homogeneous solution. No strong interactions such as hydrogen bonding will occur between the solute and solvent molecules.
Leucine polar or non-polar?
It is non polar. In amino acids, "polar" or "nonpolar" refers specifically to the side chain; the molecule as a whole is definitely polar, but leucine's side chain is a hydrocarbon with no polar groups.
