Covalent molecules are compounds/elements bonded together/formed by the sharing of electrons between 2 or more different atoms.
Polar covalent molecules forms due to the disparity in electronegativity within the atoms in the compound. For example, in HCl, chlorine is a highly electronegative element while hydrogen is not. Thus, chlorine will pull electrons in the covalent bond towards itself. As a result, delta+ charge occurs at the hydrogen end of the molecule, while delta- charge occurs at the chlorine end of the molecule.
Thus, in the overall, slightly charges (aka delta charges) form at different ends of the molecule.

Is SO2 covalent or nonpolar covalent?
Sulfur dioxide is a polar molecules with polar covalent bonds.
Do all polar molecules contain polar covalent bonds?
The answer is yes, because molecules get polarity after forming polar covlent bond,no such polar molecules can exist which do not contain polar covalent bond. Am I right?
Are molecules with two polar covalent bonds always polar molecules?
its iconic
Do diatomic elements have nonpolar covalent bonds?
Diatomic molecules have non-polar covalent bonds and are non-polar molecules
Which particles in an atom are involved in a covalent bond?
Particles formed from the covalent bonding of atoms are called molecules.

What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules ionic molecules nonpolar covalent molecules?
ionic molecules
Are all compounds with polar covalent bonds are polar molecules?
Generally a polar molecules (as salts) have an ionic bond.
What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?
ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.
What molecules contain the strongest polar covalent bond?
H2 contains the strongest polar covalent bond.
Can polar covalent molecules dissolve in water?
No
Is a covalent bond neutral?
Molecules can be polar or non-polar; bonds are what hold molecules together, but they are not in themselves polar or non-polar. I should point out that the most famous polar molecule in the world, the water molecule, does have covalent bonds.
how do you explain what polar molecules are?
Water molecules are polar molecules. Both of the bonds inside the molecule are polar bonds.
