Basically, a polar bond is one in which the electrons are unequally shared between two atoms. In the case of Carbon and Iodine, Carbon has an electronegativity of roughly 2.5 and Iodine has an electronegativity of about 2.5. Therefore, the two pull about equally as hard on the shared electrons and produce a non-polar molecule.

What type of bonding CH3I?

CH3I exhibits covalent bonding, with the carbon and hydrogen atoms sharing electrons to form bonds. The iodine atom is connected via a polar covalent bond, in which the electrons are not shared equally between the carbon and iodine atoms.


Is it a polar or nonpolar covalent bond in a molecule of iodine?

molecule of iodine is made up of similar kind of iodine atoms .So there is no difference in the electronegativity. Hence,it forms non-polar covalent bond.

Does CO have a polar covalent bond?

Yes, carbon monoxide (CO) does have a polar covalent bond. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the carbon atom, creating a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on the carbon, resulting in a polar molecule.
