Question
14 multiple choice 1 point if the atoms that share electrons have an unequal attraction for the electrons, the bond is called nonpolar. polar. ionic. dipolar.
Brief Explanations
To solve this, we recall the definitions of chemical bonds:
- A nonpolar covalent bond has equal electron attraction between atoms.
- A polar covalent bond occurs when atoms sharing electrons have unequal attraction (electronegativity difference), causing a partial charge.
- Ionic bonds involve electron transfer, not sharing.
- Dipolar refers to a molecule with a dipole, not the bond type here. So the correct answer is the option for "polar".
