Welcome...

This page belongs to a small goup of stundents who put in time for blog posts regarding the gr.11 chemistry curiculum. We post blogs of previous class lessons in our own terms for future use and for other students who find use of it. Enjoy... :D

Polarity and Electronegativity

Polar Moleculesasymmetrical and have at least one dipole present. An example would be an ionic bond.




Non-polar molecule: symmetrical and at least one dipolar bond. (value of the difference is less than 0.5) These would be covalent bonds. Thus, the electrons are shared equally.


here are more examples! 

Positive ions, also known as electropositive, have very low electronegativities. Here is an electronegativities table to help you out! As you go up the column, the electronegativity increases.
