equally

Diatomic molecules contain _______ _________ bonds

nonpolar covalent

Different atoms are likely to have different ___________ values.

electronegatvit

The atom with the greater EN value _______ the shared pair of electrons more strongly, causing that portion of the molecule to acquire a partial negative charge.

attracts

The difference in EN results in a dipole- a molecule with a…

positive and negative end.
