Is BeCl2 Polar?

BeCl2 is nonpolar.

Polarity

Polarity is the result of nonmetallic elements not sharing electrons equally. This can cause a distortion of the molecule giving one side a negative charge and the other side a positive charge.

Electronegativity differences and the electron geometry of a molecule can tell us if a molecule is polar or not.
