Chapter 12, Problem 32CR

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

“Electronegativity” and “Bond polarity” should be defined. How the electro negativity difference between two atoms related to bonding polarity should be discussed.

Concept Introduction:

When a bond forms by sharing electrons unequally resulting a polar-covalent bond, that unequal sharing of electrons between two atoms can be described by a property called “Electronegativity”. Since “Bond polarity” has important chemical aspects, it is very useful to understand the polarity of bonds and their relationship to electronegativity.
