Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A bond where electrons are NOT shared equally?
A
polar covalent
B
nonpolar covalent
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The bonding electrons in polar covalent bonds are not shared equally, and a bond moment results. However, a molecule may be polar or nonpolar depending on its geometry.

Detailed explanation-2: -Covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between atoms and are attracted by the nuclei of both atoms. In pure covalent bonds, the electrons are shared equally. In polar covalent bonds, the electrons are shared unequally, as one atom exerts a stronger force of attraction on the electrons than the other.
