Explain with the help of suitable example polar covalent bond.

Explanation

When two dissimilar atoms having different electronegativities combine to form a covalent bond, the bond pair of electrons is not shared equally. The bond pair shifts towards the nucleus of the atom having greater electronegativity. As a result, electron distribution gets dstorted andn the electron cloud is displaced towards the electronegative atom.
As a result, the electronegative atom because slightly negativel charged while the other atom becomes slightly positively charged. Thus ,opposite poles are developed in the molecule and this type of a bond is called a polar covalent bond.
HCl, for example, contains a polar covalent bond. Chlorine atom is more electronegative than hydrogen atom. Hence, the bond pari lies towareds chlorine and therefore, it acquires a partial negative charge
