Order the following bonds from the least polar to the most polar.
N-O, Ca-O, C-O, O-O, Ni-O
O-O < N-O < C-O < Ca-O < Ni-O
O-O < C-O < N-O < Ni-O < Ca-O
Ca-O < Ni-O < C-O < N-O < O-O
O-O < N-O < C-O < Ni-O < Ca-O
Ni-O < Ca-O < C-O < N-O < O-O

∙ 13y agoTo find which bond is the most polar, you need to look at the electronegativity difference between the atoms in the bond. Electronegativity (EN) values in elements increase to the top right corner of the Periodic Table. Mg is the least EN of the other atoms forming bonds with Cl, but it's also the element who is the farthest away from Cl, so they would have greatly differing EN values and be a strong polar bond. S is closest to Cl, so they would have the weakest bond polarity.

A molecule with polar bonds can be polar?
It can be beause when polar bonds form, they gather with other bonds.
Using the table of electronegativity values above rank the following bonds in order of increasing polarity least polar c-cl in ccl4 c-s in cs2 s-f in sf6 c-o in occl2 most polar?
least polar C-S in CS2 C-CL in CCl4 C-O in OCH2 S-F in SF4 most polar
Does SBr2 has polar or nonpolar bonds?
No, it is non-polar.
How does a molecule that has polar bonds be nonpolar?
A molecule with polar bonds can be overall non-polar if the bond dipoles cancel each other out. For example the following all have polar bonds but the bond dipoles cancel each other out (vector addition) to make the molecule non-polar. Linear - CO2 trigonal planar - BF3 tetrahedral molecules, CF4 trigonal bipyramidal PF5 octahedral SF6
Are carbon- hydrogen bonds of alkalanes polar?
carbon-hydrogen bonds of alkanes are not polar.

Is water composed of polar bonds?
Yes, water has polar bonds, and is a very polar molecule.
Does SBr2 has polar or nonpolar bonds?
No, it is non-polar.
What are the different types of chemical bonds?
Ionic bonds, Covalent bonds, Hydrogen bonds, Polar Covalent bonds, Non-Polar Covalent bonds, and Metallic bonds.

When does the shape of a molecule affect it's polarity?
when the molecule contains polar bonds
Is asf3 polar?
It is a polar molecule and has polar bonds.
Is octane polar?
No, it's not polar as there are no polar bonds.
What is the different between polar covalent and non polar covalent?
polar bonds are non metals bonded to non metals and non polar covalent bonds are bonds sharing electrons.....
Why H20is non polar covalent bond?
H2O has polar covalent bonds, not non-polar 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.
