Such a bond is said to be polar.

A polar bond is formed when electrons are unequally shared between two atoms. Polar covalent bonding occurs because one atom has a stronger affinity (preference) for electrons than the other (yet not enough to pull the electrons away completely and form an ion).

Polar. Because the electrons spend more time with one or more atoms in a molecule, one side of the molecule is slightly negative, and the other slightly positive. This causes the molecule to be overall polar, such as water.

its an ionic bond if they do not share electrons this is between a nonmetal and a metal
a covalent bond is between two nonmetals and they share electrons

What happends to electrons in a colvalent bond?

Electrons are shared between the atoms that are bonded. If there is an electronegativity difference between the atoms the electrons will be shared unequally.


Is A nonpolar bond is formed when two atoms share electrons unequally?

No. A polar bond is formed when electrons are shared unevenly. A nonpolar bond indicates even sharing of electrons.

Valence electrons


Covalent bonds are formed when electrons are what?

Electrons are shared. they may be shared equally if the elements are nearly equal in electronegativity; a nonpolar covalent bond. Or they may be shared unequally, that is the electrons may spend more time in one atoms orbital than the other atoms orbital(s), if the electronegativity variance is great; a polar covalent bond.
