Brief Explanations

In chemistry, the symbol δ+ (delta plus) is used to indicate a partial positive charge. This occurs when electrons in a covalent bond are not shared equally, and one atom has a slightly less electron - dense region. Similarly, the symbol δ− (delta minus) is used to indicate a partial negative charge. This is when an atom in a covalent bond has a slightly more electron - dense region due to unequal electron sharing (as in polar covalent bonds).

Answer:

partial positive, partial negative
