a covalent bond with greater electron density around one of the two or more atoms is known as either a:
pure covalent
polar covalent bond
nonpolar covalent bond
ionic bond

Explanation:

• Pure covalent bond: Electrons are equally shared between atoms.
• Polar covalent bond: Electrons are not equally shared, leading to greater electron density around one atom (due to difference in electronegativity).
• Non - polar covalent bond: Similar to pure covalent, electrons are evenly distributed.
• Ionic bond: Involves transfer of electrons, not sharing.

Answer:

polar covalent bond
