Topic: Polar covalent bond


  
  Polar covalent bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A polar covalent bond is a form of covalent bonding that happens when atoms of two different elements with different electronegativities bond resulting in an unequal sharing of electrons.
The bonding electrons in such bonds are associated more with the more electronegative atom than the other.
This produces a molecular dipole or polar molecule.

 Chemical bond - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The type of strong bond depends on the difference in electronegativity and the distribution of the electron path to the atoms that are bonded.
Covalent bonding is a common type of bonding, in which the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms is small or non-existent.
Polar covalent bonding is by nature an intermediate type of bond, between a covalent bond and an ionic bond.

In a covalent bond an electron pair is shared between two atoms to achieve a stable, outer shell.
In a non-polar covalent bond, the electron pair is equally shared, the bond is not polarized e.g.
Hydrogen bonds arise from the weak electrostatic attraction of the partial charges in adjacent polar covalent bonds.

We say that the bond is polar covalent, meaning that the bond consists of electrons shared between two atoms (therefore covalent) but shared unequally, thus giving the bond a positive and a negative end, a condition described by the term polar.
In summary, then, the three types of bonds are: (1) a covalent bond, in which the electrons are shared equally; (2) a polar covalent bond, in which the electrons are shared unequally; and (3) an ionic bond, in which electrons are transferred from one atom to the other.
Bonds with the highest degree of ionic character are formed by the reaction of alkali or alkaline earth metals with the halogens, particularly with fluorine or chlorine.

 The Covalent Bond
A single covalent bond is a bond in which two atoms are held together by sharing two electrons.
Covalent bonds form between atoms when ionic or metallic bonding is unlikely because the gain or loss of electrons requires large amounts of energy.
A covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally is called a polar covalent bond; one atom acquires a partial negative charge (d -) and the other acquires a partial positive charge (d +).

 Bond Dipole Moments   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The amount of charge that is separated within a polar covalent bond due to the unequal sharing of the bonding electrons depends in an extremely complicated manner on the electronegativity difference between the two bonding partners.
The bonding partner with the higher electronegativity displays the extra negative charge (negative end because its nucleus is now surrounded by slightly more lectrons than it contains protons); the bonding partner with the lower electronegativity suffers the lack of negative charge (positive end because the charge of its nucleus is no longer completely shielded).
The distance of charge separation depends primarily on the length of the bond and this bond length is affected strongly by the atomic radii of the bonding partners.

This means that sometimes in a covalent bond the electrons are not shared equally between the two atoms.
In an action that resembles toddlers tugging on a toy, a polar covalent bond occurs when one atom with a higher electronegativity draws the bonding electrons toward itself, pulling those electrons away from the atom with the lower electronegativity value.
The larger the absolute difference in electronegativity between two atoms, the more polar that bond is. For example, the electronegativity difference of a carbon-oxygen bond is -1.0, the result of 2.5 (the electronegativity value for carbon) minus 3.5 (the value for oxygen).
