Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons.therefore If the atoms are equally electronegative, both have the same tendency to attract the bonding pair of electrons, and so it will be found on average half way between the two atoms. if the atoms have different electronegativity there is partial polar difference as a resat of this there is a pole.by this polarity we concluded this is pure covalent bond or not .
NOTE:
The increasing order of electronegativity in bonds is lowest for nonpolar covalent bonds, followed by polar covalent bonds, and highest for ionic bonds. In nonpolar covalent bonds, the electronegativity difference between atoms is minimal, whereas in polar covalent bonds, there is a moderate electronegativity difference leading to partial charges. Ionic bonds have the highest electronegativity difference, resulting in complete transfer of electrons.

I believe that when you subtract the elements electronegativity in the formula if it is less than .4 it is non-polar. in-between .4-2.0 it is polar. and over 2.0 is Ionic. Not positive though.
Both actually. It just depends on the electro-negativity of the atoms bonded together. If both have the same electro-negativity, it is a nonpolar covalent bond. Otherwise, you have a polar covalent bond.
In a covalent bond, atoms with a small electronegativity difference share electrons almost equally, creating a nonpolar covalent bond. When there is a larger electronegativity difference, one atom pulls the shared electrons more strongly, resulting in a polar covalent bond.

Non-polar- both atoms have the same electronegativity as they are both chlorine!

Bonds between two nonmetals that differ in electronegativity (EN) are usually polar. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons. Nonmetals with EN differences of 0.5-1.6 form polar covalent bonds. The greater the difference, the more polar. If the EN difference is
a very polar bond.
you subtract the largest EN from the smallest and then look @ the number if its... 0-0.5 its Pure covalent 0.5-1.7- Polar covalent 1.7-3.3 its Ionic bond good luck :) lol idk a word ur sayin
NH is a polar covalent bond. The difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and hydrogen causes the electrons to be unequally shared, resulting in a partial negative charge on the nitrogen atom and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom.
Electronegativity is used to determine bond types by comparing the difference in electronegativity values of the atoms involved. When the electronegativity difference is large (greater than 1.7), an ionic bond is formed. When the difference is moderate (between 0.3 and 1.7), a polar covalent bond is formed. When the electronegativity difference is small (less than 0.3), a nonpolar covalent bond is formed.
Electronegativity values indicate the tendency of an atom to attract electrons in a chemical bond. In a polar covalent bond, the atom with a higher electronegativity will attract the shared electrons more strongly, leading to an uneven distribution of charge. This results in a partial negative charge on the more electronegative atom and a partial positive charge on the less electronegative atom.
