Polar as applied to a chemical bond means that there is an unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and there is therfore a build up of negative charge on the more electrnegative atom and a small positive charge on the less electronegative atom this gives rise to a bond dipole.

∙ 15y agoA polar bond is a bond in which there is a molecule has a slightly positively charged end, and a slightly negatively charged end; there is unequal sharing.

What is the increasing ordor of electronegativity in ionic bond and polar covalent bond and non polar covalent bond?
In the increasing order, they are non polar covalent bond < polar covalent bond < ionic bond.
Is a covalent bond stronger than a polar covalent bond?
== ==Yes, a covalent bond is stronger than a polar bond.
What term describes a covalent bond in which electrons are not shared equally?
A covalent bond in which the electrons are not shared equally is a polar covalent bond.
Is S and O ionic or covalent?
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
What kind of bonds are formed when atoms share electrons unequally?
The correct answer is POLAR BOND.
What is the increasing ordor of electronegativity in ionic bond and polar covalent bond and non polar covalent bond?
In the increasing order, they are non polar covalent bond < polar covalent bond < ionic bond.

== ==Yes, a covalent bond is stronger than a polar bond.
What term describes a covalent bond in which electrons are not shared equally?
A covalent bond in which the electrons are not shared equally is a polar covalent 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?
HCl (hydrogen chloride) has a covalent bond, polar.
Is SO2 non polar covalent polar covalent or ionic bond?
Polar covalent. The difference in electronegtivity is insufficient for an ionic bond
