Select True or False: The polarity of covalent bonds increases as the percent ionic character increases.
answer : True
explanation :
polar covalent bond means the ionic bond character in covalent bond . if two atoms in covalent bond have same electronegativity the covalent bond is non-polar covalent bond that means there is no ionic chareacter in that bond.
if electronegativity difference more than 0.5 in covalent bond is present that is called polar covalent bond. if electronegaitvity difference increases polarity also increases and ionic nature also increases . high polarity means high ionic nature
