Question

1 multiple choice 1 point select the appropriate choice that describes the molecule shown below.

Explanation:

In a chlorine - chlorine ($Cl - Cl$) molecule, the two atoms are identical. The electronegativity difference between them is zero. As a result, the bonding electrons are shared equally, and there is no separation of positive and negative charges within the molecule. Polar molecules have an uneven distribution of charge due to differences in electronegativity, and ionic molecules involve the transfer of electrons between atoms with large electronegativity differences. Since the $Cl - Cl$ molecule has no such features, it is non - polar.

Answer:

nonpolar
