Difine polarity
  • 1 answers

Amar Kumar 8 years, 2 months ago

The polarity of a bond is the distribution of electrical charge over the atoms joined by the bond. While bonds between identical atoms (as in H2) are electrically uniform in the sense that both hydrogen atoms are electrically neutral, bonds between atoms of different elements are electrically inequivalent.

In hydrogen chloride, for example, the hydrogen atom is slightly positively charged whereas the chlorine atom is slightly negatively charged. The slight electrical charges on dissimilar atoms are called partial charges, and the presence of partial charges signifies the occurrence of a polar bond.
