Why? Bond characteristics have major impacts on the physical and chemical properties of a substance. The type of bond that forms is related to the properties and reactivity of the elements forming a bond. Objective: Master the use of electronegativity to predict bond characteristics, ‘Success Criteria Make predictions of bond type based on electronegativity difference. Arrange bond in order of increasing polarity. READ THIS! Electronegativity measures an atom's ability to attract electrons when bonding with other atoms.

(222=10) 2-09=23) In image (a) the electrons are shared eqully because both atoms have the same pull on the bonding electrons. This represents @ nonpolar covalent bond. In image (b) the electrons are held closer to the more-negative chlorine atom because it has a higher electronegativity this unequal sharing ofelctrays characterizes a polar covalent bond. | In image (c) one ¢lectron has been erred from sodium to chlorine because chlorine’s electronegativity is much greater than sodium’s electronegativity. This represents an ionic bond. _ 7. What type of bond forms when two atoms have the same electronegativity? nonpolar covalent bord 8.
