When the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms is 0.5 - 1.6 on using the Pauling electronegativity values.

Refer to the related link below for an illustration of these values for every element.

When is a covalent bond most likely to be polar?

A covalent bond is most likely to be polar when there is a difference in electronegativity between the two atoms involved. This causes one atom to attract the shared electrons more strongly than the other, leading to an uneven distribution of charge along the bond.


How does a polar covalent bond differ from a covalent bond?

Electrons are shared unequally in a polar bond.


Does hydrochloric acid contain a non-polar covalent bond?

Is SO2 non polar covalent polar covalent or ionic bond?

Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond


Does N2 contains a polar covalent bond?

No. It contains non-polar covalent bond.


What is a polar covalent bondd?

What term describes a covalent bond in which electrons are not shared equally?

A polar covalent bond. In a polar covalent bond, one atom has a greater electronegativity than the other, causing the electrons to be pulled towards that atom, creating a partial positive and partial negative charge on the atoms.
