No. The sulfur oxygen bond is polar due to the electronegativity difference between S, EN 2.58, and O, EN 3.44. The molecule is bent and therefore the bond dipoles do not cancel and SO2 has a dipole moment of 1.62D

Is SO2 a polar bond but nonpolar covalent bond compound?
SO2 has polar bonds but is a polar molecule as it is bent and the bond dipoles do not cancel one another out.
Is O2 an example of a polar covalent bond or nonpolar covalent bond?
Nonpolar covlalent bond
What types of bond do H2 have?
nonpolar covalent 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 what polar bond?
nonpolar!
Is SO2 covalent or nonpolar covalent?
Sulfur dioxide is a polar molecules with polar covalent bonds.

nonpolar!
Is SO2 covalent or nonpolar covalent?
Sulfur dioxide is a polar molecules with polar covalent bonds.
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.
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 kind of covalent bond is formed with two nonmetals?
It can be either a polar covalent bond or a nonpolar covalent bond. C-Cl is an example of a polar covalent bond, while C-C is a good example of a nonpolar covalent bond.
What is the nature of a covalent bond in alkanes?
nonpolar covalent
Is Br2 a nonpolar covalent bond?
Yes, being symetrically.
What are the two subtypes of covalent bond?
nonpolar bond and polar bond are the two subtypes of a covalent bond
