4. What are the two types of
covalent bonds?
The two types of covalent bonds are…
1. Non-polar covalent bonds:
Electrons are equally shared
H H
• •
Shared in the middle
5. What are polar bonds?
The two types of covalent bonds are…
2. Polar covalent bonds:
Electrons are unequally shared
• •
H Cl
• •
Closer to Cl, but still
shared!
• • • •
6. Why are electrons shared
unequally?
Electrons are shared unequally because..
of differences in electronegativity
electronegativity = how strong (and greedy) atoms are
7. Why are electrons shared
unequally?
Non-polar Polar
covalent covalent Ionic
.5 1.7
Shared equally
Shared unequally

(transferred)
8. Why are electrons shared
unequally?
There is a 3-step method for determining whether a
bond will be
9. Example #1
Is H – H a nonpolar covalent or polar covalent bond?
Step 1: Find electronegativity
H = 2.1
H = 2.1
10. Example #1
Is H2 a nonpolar covalent or polar covalent bond?
Step 2: Subtract electronegativities
2.1 – 2.1 = 0
11. Example #1
Is H2 a nonpolar covalent or polar covalent bond?
Step 3: check number line
0 is less than .5
Non-polar Polar
Ionic
covalent covalent
.5 1.7
12. Example #2
Is HCl a nonpolar or polar covalent bond?
Step 1: Find electronegativity
H = 2.1
Cl = 3.0
13. Example #2
Is HCl a nonpolar covalent or polar covalent bond?
Step 2: Subtract electronegativities
3.0 – 2.1 = .9
14. Example #2
Is HCl a nonpolar or polar covalent bond?
Step 3: check the number line
.9 is between .5 and 1.7
Non-polar Polar
covalent covalent Ionic
.5 1.7
15. Example #3
Is NaCl a nonpolar covalent, polar covalent bond, or ionic bond?
Step 1: Find electronegativity
Na = .9
Cl = 3.0
16. Example #3
Is NaCl a nonpolar covalent, polar covalent bond, or ionic bond?
Step 2: Subtract electronegativities
3.0 – .9 = 2.1
17. Example #3
Is NaCl a nonpolar covalent, polar covalent bond, or ionic bond?
Step 3: less than .5, between .5 and 1.7, or greater than
1.7?
2.1 greater than 1.7
