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.

Explanation:

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".

Answer:

B. polar (assuming the options are labeled as A. nonpolar, B. polar, C. ionic, D. dipolar)
