Question
Chapter 12, Problem 8ST
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The molecule which has nonpolar bonds is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity is the tendency of an element to attract the shared pair of electrons in a covalent bond towards itself. The element which strongly attracts the electrons are known as highly electronegative and the elements which has less tendency to attract electrons are known as less electronegative elements. Electronegativity difference is the difference between a high electronegative value and a less electronegative value.
