Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3TY
Summary Introduction
Introduction: When a bond is formed between two atoms, the electron cloud is usually unevenly distributed. This is due to the difference in electronegativities. This gives rise to polarity in the bond. During covalent bond formation, polarity leads to the attracting of the electron cloud towards the atom that has a higher electronegativity.
