No single element can form a bond. Only 2 or more elements can form bonds.

Polar bonds occur when there is a dipole moment, or there is asymmetry in the structure. For example, HF forms a polar covalent bond.

What is An example of a polar covalent bond?

A bond between two atoms of the same element are non-polar.


Is O2 2- a polar covalent bond?

No, O2 2- is not a polar covalent bond. It is a covalent bond formed between two oxygen atoms. Since the two oxygen atoms are the same element and have similar electronegativities, the bond is nonpolar.


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.


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

Electrons are shared unequally in a polar bond.


Do O and O form polar covalent bonds?

No, the bond is covalent, but as the atoms are identical, it is non-polar.


Is oxygen a polar covalent bond?

Oxygen is an element, and therefore is not bonded with anything yet.


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


Does N2 contains a polar covalent bond?

No. It contains non-polar covalent bond.


What is a polar covalent bondd?

A polar covalent bond is a covalent bond between atoms in which the electrons are shared unequally.


What does a pure covalent bond mean?

The covalent bond present between the atoms of the same element is called pure covalent bond. for example in H2


Why is the covalent bond between two of the same element a non polar bond?

Because both atoms have the same electronegativity.
