In a polar bond, electrons are shared ___________.

• equally

• unequally

• between non-metals with similar electronegativities

• between a metal and a non-metal

Electronegativity is a measurement of the ability of a nucleus to...

• attract bonding electrons
• attract other nuclei
• attract elenece in the non-valence energy levels

The polarity of a bond between two elements can be best determined by

• The difference in electronegativity between the elements
• The difference in first ionization energy between the elements
• The number of electrons shared in the bond
• The difference in atomic radius between the elements

A diatomic molecule like O2 is always_______ because electrons are shared ________.

• nonpolar; equally
• polar; equally
• nonpolar; unequally
• nonpolar; unequally
