Document Summary

Bond polarity: polar bond, partial negative and positive charges ( +, -, direction of polarity indicated by arrow pointing to more negative end of bond, with + sign at positive end, degree of polarity depends on differences in electronegativity. Polar bonds: which of the following bonds in each pair are more polar, c-n or c-o, cl-cl or o=o, n-h or c-h. Resonance structures: ozone: resonance, when two or more equivalent lewis structures can be drawn for one compound, resonance structures, two or more lewis structures with the same arrangement of atoms but different arrangement of bonding pairs of electrons.
