No, it is nonpolar. A polar bond is between two different atoms, which will have different electronegativities (attraction for electrons). The atom with the higher electronegativity will "pull" the shared electrons closer to itself, making that side of the molecule more negative and the other atom's side more positive, creating a polar bond. Two identical atoms will have the same electronegativity and therefore will share the electrons equally, making a nonpolar bond.

∙ 12y agoBr2 liquid, in its standard elemental condition is non polar. Both Br atoms are equally electronegative and so the covalent electrons are equally distributed between each atom. However, random movement of the electrons can cause temporary instantaneous-induced dipoles on the molecule. This is important in substitution reactions such as electrophilic substitution. The Br2 comes in contact with an electron-dense species and causes one atom of the molecule to become delta + and hence the other becomes delta -. This induced dipole can split the covalent bond between Br atoms leading to a Br- ion and substitute a Br atom into the electron dense species

Is ch4 bond a polar or non polar bond?
the molecule is non-polar the CH bonds are also non-polar
Does hydrochloric acid contain a non-polar covalent bond?
HCl (hydrogen chloride) has a covalent bond, polar.
Is ether a polar substance?
Polar. the C-O bond are polar
Why like atoms form non-polar bond instead of polar bond?
The difference in electronegativity between th atoms foming the covalent bond leads to the polar nture of the bond. If the atoms are alike then there is NO difference in electronegativity- so - no bond polarity
Is IOF5 polar or non polar?
IOF5 is polar - O has a double bond
What is the increasing ordor of electronegativity in ionic bond and polar covalent bond and non polar covalent bond?
In the increasing order, they are non polar covalent bond < polar covalent bond < ionic bond.
How does a polar covalent bond differ from a covalent bond?
Electrons are shared unequally in a polar bond.
Is the bond between CN polar?
It is polar bond, a very weak polar bond the ^EN=0.5 but in many cases it is more practical to say that it is non-polar.
Is cf3cl polar?
CF3Cl is a polar molecule. There are three C-F polar bond and and C-Cl polar bond. The bond dipoles do not cancel out and hence the compound is a polar molcule.
Is a covalent bond stronger than a polar covalent bond?
== ==Yes, a covalent bond is stronger than a polar bond.
If atoms that share electrons have an unequal attraction for the electrons the bond is called?
i was doing my chemistry hw, and found this. I hope that it helps you too: polar covalent
Is C - 0 a non polar covalent bond?
carbon-oxygen bond is polar covalent bond
Is ch4 bond a polar or non polar bond?
the molecule is non-polar the CH bonds are also non-polar
What do polar bonds use delta notation for?
A polar bond is bond between two atoms where the bond is shared, but unequal. A delta notation in a polar bond marks the atom that has the strong part of the bond.
If oxygen which has an electronegativity of 3.5 bonds with hydrogen which has an electronegativity of 2.1 the bond between the two atoms will be classified as a polar blank bond?
Polar covalent bond.
What kind of bonds are formed when atoms share electrons unequally?
The correct answer is POLAR BOND.
Is HF a polar covalent bond?
It is polar covalent bond because electrons forming the bond are unequally distributed.
