Question

able to identify each of the following bonds as polar or nonpolar. n—o polar nonpolar done

Explanation:

To determine if a bond is polar or non - polar, we look at the electronegativity difference (\(\Delta\)EN) between the two atoms. The electronegativity of \(N\) is \(3.04\) and the electronegativity of \(O\) is \(3.44\). The electronegativity difference \(\Delta\)EN=\(\vert3.44 - 3.04\vert= 0.4\). A bond is considered polar if \(\Delta\)EN \(>0\). Since \(0.4>0\), the \(N - O\) bond is polar.

Answer:

polar
