Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
A polar covalent bond is seen in HCl between hydrogen and chlorine.Hydrogen chloride (HCl) is a diatomic molecule, consisting of a hydrogen atom H and a chlorine atom Cl connected by a covalent bond. It is formed by the sharing of an electron pair between the two atoms. The chlorine atom is much more electronegative than the hydrogen atom, which makes this bond polar.
