How can a molecule be in a nonpolar covalent bond?

A molecule can have a completely nonpolar covalent bond when two atoms of the same element form the bond.


Covalent bond in which electrons are shared equally?

A non-polar covalent is one in which the electrons are shared equally.


What type of covalent bond will form in a molecule of iodine?

Nonpolar covalent bond; the electronegativity values are identical.


Is O2 an example of a polar covalent bond or nonpolar covalent bond?

Nonpolar covlalent bond


What happens when a polar covalent bond and a nonpolar covalent substance combine?

a bond of some type will form haha


What types of bond do H2 have?

nonpolar covalent bond


Can two oxygen atoms form an ionic bond?

No, the bond would be nonpolar covalent


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 what polar bond?

nonpolar!


What type of bond does Cl and F have?

The bond between F and Cl is a polar covalent bond. Fluorine is very electronegative and Cl is not as much. The difference is large enough to be considered polar.


What type of bond that will form between fluorine and fluorine?

Nonpolar covalent.


We further separate covalent bonds into polar covalent and nonpolar covalent what would have to be the case for a bond to be a nonpolar covalent?

In a nonpolar covalent bond the difference between the electronegativities of the two atoms are not significant.


Given that it has the highest electronegativity can a flouride atom ever form a nonpolar covalent bond?

A fluorine atom can never form a nonpolar covalent bond because if you were to use the electronegativeity chart and subtract the second highest number with Fluorine, you get numbers that range from 0.6 (polar covalent) to 3.3 (ionic).
