(a)
Interpretation:
The labeling of each atom in the polar covalent bond
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards it. Polarized bonds are a result of the electronegativity difference between bonding atoms. The more electronegative atom acquires a partial negative charge and the less electronegative atom acquires partial positive charge while showing charge distribution.
Answer to Problem 53E
The polar
Explanation of Solution
The electronegativity of an element increases along the period from left to right and decreases down in the group. From the figure
