Explanation:
- A polar covalent bond exists when atoms with different electronegativities share electrons in a covalent bond. ... The unequal sharing of the bonding pair results in a partial negative charge on the chlorine atom and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atom.

Answer:
Polar Covalent Bond. A bond between 2 nonmetal atoms that have different electronegativities and therefore have unequal sharing of the bonding electron pair. Example: In H-Cl, the electronegativity of the Cl atom is 3.0, while that of the H atom is 2.1.
