Answer:

  • <u><em>polar covalent bond.</em></u>

Explanation:

Polar covalent bonds are formed when the electrons are not shared equally.

The unequal sharing of electrons happens when the electronegativities of the atoms that form the bonds are different.

The electronegativity of<em> hydrogen </em>atoms is found to be 2.20 and that of <em>oxygen</em> is 3.44.

So, the electronegativity difference found in a H - O bond is 3.44 - 2.20 = 1.24.

That means that oxygen atoms pull the electrons more strongly than hydrogen atoms, which results in that the electrons spend more time closer to the hydrogen atoms than to the oxygen atoms.

1. What happens when like charges are brought closer to each other?<br><br><br>​
deff fn [24]
Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges. The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges.
