Best Answer

A perfectly nonpolar bond is formed by two atoms with identical nuclei, and an at least moderately nonpolar bond is formed between two different atoms with very small differences in their electronegativity values.

What covalent bond is formed when electrons are equally shared between atoms?

A "nonpolar" covalent bond.


Which bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms that do not differ in their electronegativities?

This would be a nonpolar covalent bond.

Nonpolar covalent bond.


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.


Is A nonpolar bond is formed when two atoms share electrons unequally?

No. A polar bond is formed when electrons are shared unevenly. A nonpolar bond indicates even sharing of electrons.


What kind of bond is eventually formed when a chlorine atom comes into contact with another chlorine atom?

Nonpolar Covalent Bond


What bond is formed with Nitrogen and chlorine?

Covalent. Nonpolar covalent. Nitrogen and chlorine have very similar electronegativities. Therefore the electron will be shared equally between them and the bond will be nonpolar covalent. The larger the difference between the electronegativities the more polar the bond.
