Answer:

Polar

Step-by-step explanation:

Electronegativity increases from left to right in the Periodic Table.

Cl is further right than C (both tinted pink) in the portion of the Periodic Table below.

Cl is more electronegative than C, so the Cl has a partial negative charge and the C has a partial positive charge.

The C-Cl bond is polar.
