Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
Explain with the help of suitable example polar covalent bond.
If two different atoms are linked to each other by a covalent bond,then the shared electron pair will not lie in the centre because the bonding atoms differ in electronegativities.Such a bond is called as polar covalent bond.For in NaCl , chlorine is more electronegative than sodium. Hence it will have more control over the shared pair of electrons & will develop a partial negative charge & sodium will acquire partial positive charge & a polar covalent bond is formed. Greater the difference in electronegativity of bonding atoms more will be the polarity of the bond.
