Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 252
Two electrons of one atom A and two electrons of another atom B are shared to form a compound AB. This is an example of [MNR 1981]
Options:
A) Polar covalent bond
B) Non-polar covalent bond
C) Polar bond is a type of covalent bond where electrons are shared unequally between two atoms, resulting in a partial positive and partial negative charge.
D) Dative bond
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
When two atoms share two electrons it is an example of covalent bond. This covalent bond may be polar or non-polar depending on the electronegativity difference. In given example formula is AB. So it is polar.
