Question

approximately in which range of electronegativity differences would polar covalent bonds occur? (1 point)
0.5 to 1.7
-1.0 to 0
0 to 1.0
0 to 0.5

Explanation:

Electronegativity difference determines bond type. When it's between 0.5 and 1.7, electrons are shared unequally (polar covalent). Less than 0.5 (non - polar covalent), more than 1.7 (ionic). Negative range not valid (electronegativity is positive). 0 - 1.0 and 0 - 0.5 too broad or incorrect for polar covalent.

Answer:

0.5 to 1.7
