Unequal sharing of electrons forming a polar covalent bond occurs when one atom is more electronegative than another. The atom that is more electronegative exerts a greater force of attraction for the electron(s) shared with an atom of lower electronegativity. This causes an unequal sharing of the electrons, which forms a polar covalent bond.
In a non-polar covalent bond the sharing of electrons between the atoms is equal.
This depends on the difference between the electronegativities involved in the bond; when a difference don't exist or is minimal the bond is non-polar.
As an example the diatomic hydrogen bond is non-polar.
Electrons in a nonpolar covalent bond are shared equally by two atoms.
This is essentially correct. In ionic bonding, the electrons are actually "loaned out" by one group of elements, and "borrowed" by another. Covalent bonding is the "sharing" of electrons.
The electrons in 1 or more covalent bonds in a polar molecule are not shared equally.
The electrons are shared equally
yes. unevenly shared
shared
This is a nonpolar covalent bonding.
That would be covalent bonding. Ionic bonding is the transfer of electrons, covalent is sharing.
Essentially, pairs of electrons are shared in a covalent bond. Generally, it is greatest when atoms display comparable electronegativity. 2055FCCE-0BFC-F902-5F3E-8A1C92C17B91 1.03.01

Covalent bonding. It can be two types - polar covalent or nonpolar covalent. In polar covalent bonding, atoms do not share electrons equally. In nonpolar covalent bonding, atoms share electrons equally.
That would be covalent bonding. Ionic bonding is the transfer of electrons, covalent is sharing.

This is a nonpolar covalent bond.
In ionic bonding electrons are transferred from one element to another and are localised and not shared. the force of attraction in ionic bonding is electrostatic. In covalent bonding electrons are shared, or in some cases delocalised as in benzene. The source of the strength of a covalent bond is a quantum effect.
