The unequal, asymmetric sharing of electrons which results in one end (pole) of the molecule having a small electrical charge opposite the other end is called

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Polar covalent bonding results in unequal sharing of electrons between atoms in a molecule, leading to one end of the molecule having a slightly negative charge and the other end having a slightly positive charge. Hydrogen bonding involves the attraction between a hydrogen atom and an electronegative atom, such as oxygen or nitrogen. Double covalent bonding involves the sharing of two pairs of electrons between two atoms. Ionic bonding involves the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in the formation of cations and anions. Non-polar covalent bonding involves equal sharing of electrons between atoms in a molecule, resulting in a molecule with no poles or charges.
