Nonpolar Covalent BondsNonpolar Covalent Bonds

When the electrons are equally shared the bond When the electrons are equally shared the bond between the atoms is nonpolar. Note the even between the atoms is nonpolar. Note the even distribution of the electron cloud of the hydrogen distribution of the electron cloud of the hydrogen moleculemolecule

Polar Covalent BondsPolar Covalent Bonds

Polar – an unsymmetrical distribution of Polar – an unsymmetrical distribution of electric charge due to the unequal sharing electric charge due to the unequal sharing of electonsof electons
