Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Non-polar covalent bonds occur when two atoms of the same element or two atoms with similar electronegativity (ability to attract electrons) share electrons equally. In this case, both the C-H and C-Cl bonds have similar electronegativity values, making them non-polar covalent bonds. The other bonds listed have a difference in electronegativity values, leading to either polar covalent or ionic bonds.
