Formed by the transfer of electrons from a metal to a nonmetal.

Electronegativity
The ability of an atom to attract shared electrons (how much the element wants electrons around it) (13 year- old girls at 1D, mor protons= more boys in band), increases from left to right.

New cards
Non Polar Covalent Bonds
Formed by equal (or nearly equal) sharing of electrons between two nonmetal or metalloid atoms.
4
New cards
Polar Covalent Bonds
Formed by uneven sharing of electrons between two nonmetals or metalloids.
5
New cards
Non-Polar Covalent Bonds
Formed by equal (or nearly equal) sharing of electrons between two nonmetal or metalloid atoms

What makes Polarity
asymmetrical electron distribution around the molecule (different electronegativity)
