The oxygen atom will have a slightly negative charge.
This table really helped me understand.
Electronegativity difference range
Most probable type of bond
Example
0.0-0.4
Nonpolar Covalent
H----H (0.0)
0.4-1.0
Moderately polar covalent
Hδ+---Clδ- (0.9)
1.0-2.0
Very polar covalent
H δ+---F δ- (1.9)
Greater than or equal to 2.0
Ionic
Na+Cl- (2.1)

In what bonds is the chemical energy stored in fats and in carbohydrates?
In fats, its mainly stored in carbon-carbon bonds. In carbs, its mainly stored in both carbon-carbon bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds.
How many bonds are between carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Well, i think that there are 5 bonds.
Where is the energy in a sucrose molecule store?
The energy in a sucrose molecule is stored in the interatomic bonds such as the carbon-oxygen bonds and the oxygen-hydrogen bonds.
What kind of bonds are possible between carbon and oxygen?
covalent bond
What atoms most often form multiple bonds?
Carbon, oxygen and nitrogen most often form multiple bonds.
Which bonds are ionic and covalent in NaHCO3?
The bond between the sodium ion (Na+) and the bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) is ionic. The negative charge on bicarbonate ion is distributed between two oxygen atoms by resonance. The rest of the bonds within the bicarbonate ion (3 carbon-oxygen bonds and 1 oxygen-hydrogen bond) are covalent.
How many bonds does carbon make with oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Carbon makes four bonds with oxygen in carbon dioxide.
What are held together by multiple covalent bonds?
Examples are oxygen, nitrogen , alkenes with carbon carbon double bonds, alkynes with carbon carbon triple bonds, the carbon oxygen double bonds in carbon dioxide
How many bonds are there in ethanol or dimethylether?
Ethanol has one hydrogen-oxygen bond, one carbon-oxygen bond, one carbon-carbon bond, and five carbon-hydrogen bonds. Dimethyl ether has six carbon-hydrogen bonds and two carbon-oxygen bonds.
What are examples of covalent bonds besides water?
Single, double, and triple carbon-carbon bonds; carbon-hydrogen bonds; carbon-halogen bonds; hydrogen-hydrogen bonds; nitrogen-nitrogen bonds; single and double carbon-oxygen bonds; silicon-oxygen bonds in silicone polymers.
What are some examples of covalent bond?
Single, double, and triple carbon-carbon bonds; carbon-hydrogen bonds; carbon-halogen bonds; hydrogen-hydrogen bonds; nitrogen-nitrogen bonds; single and double carbon-oxygen bonds; silicon-oxygen bonds; nitrogen-oxygen bonds; etc.
What is CO2 charge?
While containing four electrons, carbon can also have a positive or negative charge. The charge can be either +4 or -4.
Carbon can react to how many atoms at one time?
It depends on the atoms it is reacting with. If carbon it is 4 eg CH4 is methane, if oxygen it is two eg CO2 is carbon dioxide. This is because carbon can form four bonds, and carbon-carbon bonds are single bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds are double bonds.
What kind of bonds are carbon-oxygen bonds in CO2?
double covalent bonds
In what bonds is the chemical energy stored in fats and in carbohydrates?
In fats, its mainly stored in carbon-carbon bonds. In carbs, its mainly stored in both carbon-carbon bonds and carbon-oxygen bonds.
Does carbon dioxide have a single bond?
No. The two carbon to oxygen bonds are both double bonds.
How many bonds are between carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide?
Well, i think that there are 5 bonds.
