If atoms that share electrons have an unequal attraction for the electrons the bond is called?
If atoms that share electrons have an unequal attraction for the electrons, the bond is called a polar covalent bond. This occurs when one atom has a higher electronegativity than the other, leading to an uneven distribution of electrons in the bond.
How does a polar covalent bond differ from a covalent bond?
Electrons are shared unequally in a polar bond.
Is a covalent bond considered polar if the two atoms share the electrons equally?
No, a covalent bond is considered nonpolar when the two atoms share the electrons equally. If the electrons are not shared equally and there is an unequal distribution of charge, then the bond is considered polar.
How does a bond become polar?
Usually it just is polar. It happens when one of the atoms has a greater electronegativity (attraction for electrons) than the other, so more of the electron density is at that end of the bond.
What happens when 1 pair of electrons are shared?
When one pair of electrons is shared, a single covalent bond exists. This bond can be either polar or nonpolar. If the electrons are equally shared, the bond is nonpolar. If the electrons are unequally shared, the bond is polar.
What is polar covalent bond?
A polar covalent bond is a type of chemical bond where electrons are shared unequally between two atoms, resulting in a partial positive charge on one atom and a partial negative charge on the other. This happens when atoms with different electronegativities form a covalent bond.
A covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally are what?
Polar Bond
Unequal sharing of electrons produces what type of bond?
polar covalent bonds
When atoms share electrons is it called a double bond?
When atoms share two electrons it is called a covalent bond. A covalent bond consists of two types of bond a polar covalent bond and a non polar covalent bond.
Which bond is formed when electrons are shared unequally?
a polar covalent bond
Which chemical bond shares electrons unequally?
Polar Covalent Bond.
What is a covalent bond if the electrons are shared unequally?
A polar covalent bond.
