There are different types of bonds that are available right now. There are non-polar covalent bonds. This is the type of bond wherein there are two atoms that share a pair of electrons. Polar covalent bonding is the type of bonding wherein a pair of electrons are not shared with each other.

Sharing between two atoms will not be equal. In a polar covalent bond, one of the atoms will have a stronger pull as compared to the other atom. This means that one of the atoms will have a negative charge. In order to help you remember, you can remember that a polar covalent bond will have more “pull” as compared to a non-polar covalent bond.

Non-polar and polar covalent bonds are types of covalent bonds; they occur in different types of non-metal elements. Covalent bonding refers to the transfer of electrons, which involves equal sharing, or unequal sharing of electron between two elements examples of a covalent bond are NH3, H3O, CL2, O2. Non-polar covalent bond has an equal sharing in the distribution of electron; a non-polar bond has no defined axis, and also it lacks charges.

Polar covalent bond refers to the unequal sharing of an electron; in polar covalent bonds,, one of the elements is positively charged while the other is negatively charged. Electronegativity of a non-polar covalent bond is attained by the positive and negative pole. Polar bonds are charged and have a defined axis.
