Questions and Answers

What is the key difference between polar and nonpolar covalent bonds?

  • Polar covalent bonds have more electrons than nonpolar covalent bonds.
  • Nonpolar covalent bonds have unequal sharing of electrons, while polar covalent bonds involve equal sharing.
  • Polar covalent bonds involve unequal sharing of electrons, while nonpolar covalent bonds involve equal sharing. (correct)
  • Nonpolar covalent bonds are stronger than polar covalent bonds.
  • Why do polar molecules have the strongest intermolecular forces?

  • Since they lack partial charges.
  • Because they have a balanced distribution of charges.
  • Due to their symmetrical structure.
  • They exhibit dipole-dipole interactions. (correct)
  • Which type of bond is formed by sharing three pairs (six electrons) between two atoms?

  • Single bond
  • Double bond
  • Triple bond (correct)
  • Covalent bond
