Chapter 12, Problem 4CLE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A brief description about the relationships of terms polar bond, nonpolar bond, electronegativity, charge density, and distribution of bonding electron charge is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The ability of an atom to attract bonding electrons towards itself is called electronegativity. Two different atoms having a different value of electronegativity form polar bond. The distribution of bonding electron charge is unequal in polar bond because the electron density will be shifted towards more electronegative atom.
