Why is the bonding in Oxygen molecules called pure covalent and the bonding in CO called polar covalent?

"Pure Covalent" is a synonym for "nonpolar covalent bonding". That means that each atom pulls equally on the electrons and doesn't produce a permanent dipole moment.

Why is the bonding in O2 molecules called pure covalent?
because there is no electronegativity difference between the two oxygen atoms.
What are atoms involved in covalent bonding called ions anions cations or molecules?
Atoms involved in covalent bonding are just called atoms. Molecules are composed of covalently bonded atoms.
What of kind of bonds are found in water molecules?
hydrogen bonding between H2O and covalent bonding within the H2O molecule
Which particles in an atom are involved in a covalent bond?
Particles formed from the covalent bonding of atoms are called molecules.
Particles formed from covalent bonding is?
They are molecules.No they are generally called molecules. However there are polyatomic ions that are charged molecules, such as SO42-
Do neutral particles formed as a result of covalent bonding called molecules?
No, a neutral particle that forms as a result of electrons sharing are called a molecule.
What is the atom the involved in bonding are called?
If the bonding is covalent, then they are just called atoms but when in ionic bonding they are called ions.
What type of bonding does H2S has?
The sulfate radical has covalent bonding. Since sulfur and oxygen are both nonmetals, they have to form a covalent bond. Only the combination of a metal and a nonmetal would form an ionic bond.
What holds hydrogen and oxygen molecules together?
The bond between Hydrogen and Oxygen is covalent because these elements are both non-metals. The is called polar covalent bond . oxygen is delta negative.hydrogen is delta positive
Bonding that involves sharing of electrons within a molecule is called?
Covalent Bonding
What bond holds hydrogen and oxygen molecules together?
The bond between Hydrogen and Oxygen is covalent because these elements are both non-metals. The is called polar covalent bond . oxygen is delta negative.hydrogen is delta positive
What Bond formed by shared pairs of electrons?
That would be covalent bonding. Ionic bonding is the transfer of electrons, covalent is sharing.
