A polar covalent bond occurs between atoms differing in electronegativity, causing an uneven distribution of shared electrons.
Un enlace covalente polar se da entre átomos con diferente electronegatividad, lo que resulta en una distribución desigual de los electrones compartidos.
| Front | polar covalent bond |
|---|---|
| Back | A covalent bond between atoms that differ in electronegativity. The shared electrons are pulled closer to the more electronegative atom, making it slightly negative and the other atom slightly positive. |
