What is electronegativity?
Think about why some elements attract electrons more strongly.
What kind of bond is formed between two atoms with identical electronegativities?
Remember examples like O₂ or Cl₂.
What is the term for the ability of an atom to attract shared electrons?
Consider which term describes attraction in bonding.
True or False: In a polar covalent bond, electrons are shared equally.
Recall what happens with different electronegativities.
Predict the polar nature of ammonia (NH₃) based on its electronegativity difference and provide a rationale.
Compare nitrogen's electronegativity with that of hydrogen.
Determine if the bond between sulfur and oxygen in sulfur dioxide (SO₂) is polar or non-polar and justify your reason.
Look up the electronegativity values for sulfur and oxygen and compare.
