MCQ
The polarity of a covalent bond between two atoms depends upon
  • A
    Atomic size
  • Electronegativity
  • C
    Ionic size
  • D
    None of the above

Answer

Correct option: B.
Electronegativity
b
The polarity of a covalent bond can be judged by determining the difference in the electronegativities of the two atoms making the bond. The greater the difference in electronegativities, the greater the imbalance of electron sharing in the bond.
