Artificial flavors can be either polar or nonpolar, depending on their chemical structure. Some artificial flavors may have polar functional groups (such as hydroxyl or carbonyl groups), making them polar molecules, while others may have nonpolar structures, making them nonpolar molecules.
Polar bonds make a compound more soluble in polar solvents by facilitating interactions with the solvent molecules through dipole-dipole or hydrogen bonding. Nonpolar bonds make a compound more soluble in nonpolar solvents by reducing interactions with polar solvent molecules. Therefore, compounds with polar bonds are usually more soluble in polar solvents, while compounds with nonpolar bonds are more soluble in nonpolar solvents.
C2H2 (Ethyne or Acetylene) is nonpolar because the molecule has a linear geometry with symmetric electronegativity, resulting in an equal distribution of charge and no net dipole moment.
Paper is nonpolar because it is mostly composed of cellulose, which is a nonpolar molecule. Nonpolar substances do not have a separation of charge, meaning they do not have a positive and negative end like polar molecules do.
CH2 does not exist as a molecule. There are, however, C2H2 and CH4, both of which are nonpolar.

TeS3 is a polar molecule. This is because the sulfur atom has a higher electronegativity than tellurium, creating an uneven distribution of electrons within the molecule. The resulting dipole moment causes TeS3 to have a net dipole, making it a polar molecule.

Polar substances dissolve other polar substances, and nonpolar substances dissolve other nonpolar substances. A polar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance and a nonpolar substance cannot dissolve a polar substance.
The shape is trigonal bipyramidal and all the atoms on the outside are the same so the charges cancel eachother. Nonpolar
