Both polar and non-polar covalent bonds are formed by the mutual sharing of electrons between two atoms.

However, in non-polar bond there is equal sharing of the electrons between two atoms whereas in polar covalent bond there is unequal sharing of electrons.

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

Why like atoms form non-polar bond instead of polar bond?

The difference in electronegativity between th atoms foming the covalent bond leads to the polar nture of the bond. If the atoms are alike then there is NO difference in electronegativity- so - no bond polarity


Is non-polar covalent the weakest bond?

No.


What is an example of a non-polar covalent bond?

An example of a non-polar covalent bond is the bond between two chlorine atoms in a chlorine molecule (Cl2). In this bond, the electrons are shared equally between the two chlorine atoms, resulting in no separation of charge and making it a non-polar covalent bond.


Is N2 non polar covalent bond?

Yes, N2 forms a non-polar covalent bond because nitrogen atoms have similar electronegativities (3.04) and share electrons equally. This balanced sharing of electrons results in a non-polar covalent bond in which there is no buildup of charge on either nitrogen atom.


When atoms share electrons is it called a double bond?

When atoms share two electrons it is called a covalent bond. A covalent bond consists of two types of bond a polar covalent bond and a non polar covalent bond.
