organic chemistry - What is the order of the following compounds based on polarity?



What is the order of the following compounds from more polar to less polar?




  • Hydrochloric acid,

  • Methanol,

  • Hexane,

I know that $\ce{HCl}$ has the largest polarity. Hexane I guess has the less. I guess the order should be like:
$\ce{HCl}$ > Methanol > Petroleum benzene > Hexane


Is this correct? I'm not sure of the place of petroleum benzene.
