All of the following are polar organic compounds EXCEPT:
Correct answer: A. C10H22
- A. C10H22
- B. CH3CHO
- C. CHCl3
- D. CH3CH2O
Explanation
C10H22 is a non-polar hydrocarbon because it contains only C-C and C-H bonds. CH3CHO, CHCl3, and CH3CH₂OH are polar due to the presence of polar functional groups.

About Fundamental Principles of Organic Chemistry
Organic chemistry begins with carbon compounds classified by carbon skeleton, saturation and functional group. Work includes identifying groups such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino, applying basic nomenclature, and distinguishing structural, geometric and optical isomers, where the same molecular formula does not necessarily mean the same structure or properties.
