Review of ElectronegativityReview of Electronegativity
Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons in a compound. attract electrons in a compound.
The The more electronegative element in a more electronegative element in a compound will pull the electrons towards compound will pull the electrons towards itself. itself.
The difference in electronegativity The difference in electronegativity determines if the bond is nonpolar, polar determines if the bond is nonpolar, polar or ionic. or ionic.
Definitions of PolarityDefinitions of Polarity Polar bond — bond involves unequal Polar bond — bond involves unequal

If the difference is:If the difference is: 0.0 to 0.2 the bond is nonpolar covalent 0.0 to 0.2 the bond is nonpolar covalent 0.3 to 1.4 the bond is polar covalent 0.3 to 1.4 the bond is polar covalent > 1.5 the bond is ionic IF a metal is involved> 1.5 the bond is ionic IF a metal is involved
HOWEVER If only nonmetals are involved, the HOWEVER If only nonmetals are involved, the bond is considered polar covalent. bond is considered polar covalent.
