Q

What does a polar bond refer to?

A

The end of the atom with the greater electronegativity will have a permanent negative charge because the shared pair of electrons spends more time nearer this atom.
The other end of the bond will have an equal positive charge

Q

What is core charge?

A

The force of attraction between a nucleus and valence electrons, which increases across a period

17
Q

How is core charge calculated?

A

Number of protons in the nuclues - number of total inner-shell electrons

18
Q

What is a dipole?

A

A pair of equal and oppositely charged poles separated by a distance

19
Q

What is a permanent dipole?

A

The partial charge separation that can occur within a molecule along the bond that forms between two different atoms

20
Q

What is a polar bond?

A

A covalent bond where there is an electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms and they are asymmetrical

21
Q

What is a non-polar bond?

A

A covalent bond between 2 non-metal atoms that have the same electronegativity and are symmetrical
