I. Nonpolar Covalent:
This type of bond occurs when there is equal sharing (between the
two atoms) of the electrons in the bond. Molecules such as Cl 2, H2
and F2 are the usual examples.
Textbooks typically use a maximum difference of 0.2 - 0.5 to
indicate nonpolar covalent. Since textbooks vary, let us use 0.5.
One interesting example molecule is CS2. This molecule has
nonpolar bonds. Since the electronegativities of C and S are both
2.5, you have a nonpolar bond.
