Which atom in the pictured molecule will have the strongest partial positive charge?
The C that's in C=O.
The O atom that's in C=O.
The H that's bound to O.
The N atom.
The C that's bound to N.
Dr. Haxton says the O-O bond is polar and the C-C bond is nonpolar. A good student would say ...
No, both bonds are highly polar.
Right! O is electronegative, so O2 is polar.
No way. C is more electronegative than O.
Wrong again, Ralph. Both bonds are nonpolar.
Yes. O attracts electrons more strongly than C.
When two atoms of the same kind form a covalent bond, they share electrons equally because their electronegativity is the same.
O-C
N-H
O-H
C-H
O-N
If you want a molecule that is highly polar, look for one that contains:
