Tug of War Polarity and Electronegativity
Think about it • What does the word POLAR mean to you?
Polar Bear North/South Poles
Polar Molecules
What is Electronegativity? Electronegativity: • How much an atom in a molecule attracts electrons
Electronegativity Decreases Electronegativity Increases
Polarity Ionic bond: A bond in which the bonding electrons in the molecular orbital are transferred.
Polarity Covalent bond: A bond in which the bonding electrons in the molecular orbital are shared.
Polarity Nonpolar covalent bond: A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons in the molecular orbital are SHARED EQUALLY
Polarity Polar covalent bond: A covalent bond in which the bonding electrons in the molecular orbital are NOT SHARED EQUALLY
Electronegativity If the difference is… • less than 0. 4, = nonpolar covalent. • between 0. 4 and 1. 7 = polar covalent • greater than 1. 7 = ionic
