Single or multiple bonds between carbon atoms are nonpolar. ... Thus ethane, ethylene, and acetylene have nonpolar covalent bonds, and the compounds are nonparal
Single or multiple bonds between carbon atoms are nonpolar. ... Thus ethane, ethylene, and acetylene have nonpolar covalent bonds, and the compounds are nonpolar. Bonds between carbon and other elements such as oxygen and nitrogen are polar. The polarity of a bond depends on the electronegativities of the bonded atoms.
