Best Answer

Polar covalent compounds: unequal sharing of electrons. Basically, one element has a much higher electronegativity ("liking" of electrons) than the others. Like in water: Oxygen has a much higher electronegativity and positive charge than the hydrogens. So, the electrons will spend most of their time with the oxygen. This will make the oxygen act like a negative and the hydrogen act like a positive.
