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).

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.

What type of bond is electrons are shared but not equally?

A polar covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared unequally between atoms, causing a partial separation of charges. This leads to the formation of a slightly positive and slightly negative region within the molecule.
