Which bond pair does not have a polar covalent bond?


A. P – Cl



B. O – H



C. S – Cl



D. H – Cl



E. Cl – Cl

Respuesta :

The answer is E. Cl -- Cl

Chloride, Cl2, has a non-polar covalent bond because both molecules making up the compound are identical. This results to a diatomic molecule, which are known non-polar molecules. Since both sides of the bond are also the same, there is equal sharing of electrons. Polar covalent bonds are those that have unequal sharing of electrons.
