Answer:
The correct answer is B) electronegativities of the bonded atoms in a molecule of the compound .
Explanation:
When two atoms forming a bond differ in their electronegativities at that time bond polarity is generated
In simple words a bond will be polar when the bonding electrons are not equally shared by two atoms.As a result the atom attract the bonding electron pair towards itself gain partial negative charge and the other atom gains partial positive charge.
For HCl is a polar compound because H and Cl atom differ in their electronegativities,as a result the bonding electron pair is not shared equally by H and Cl atoms.
Yes because look in the book dh
A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
