The molecule, C5F12 is non-polar.
Accepted Answer
Yes, C5F12 (perfluoropentane) is a non-polar molecule. It has a symmetrical tetrahedral geometry around each carbon atom, and the electronegativity difference between carbon and fluorine is large but evenly distributed, leading to a cancellation of dipole moments.
