a.
Interpretation:
The partial charge by symbol and
should be indicated on each atom if the
bond is polar covalent.
Concept introduction: The covalent bond is a type of bond which formed by sharing of electrons between atoms. It forms between two non-metals.
A polar covalent bond is a type of bond where the bonded electrons of covalent bond are shared unequally.
A non-polar covalent bond is a type of bond where the bonded electrons of covalent bond are shared equally.
The relation between elements electronegativity and bonding type are as follows:
Electro-negativity difference | Bonding type |
< 0.5 | Non-polar covalent |
0.5-2.0 | Polar covalent |
> 2.0 | Ionic |
The direction of dipole is always from less electronegative atom to more electronegative atom, which indicates the shifting of bonding electrons.
If in bond, A is more electronegative that B then partial charge will be indicated as follows:
