Answer:
To find the ionic character (or the polarity) of a bond, we look at the electronegativity of the two atoms involved. The greater the difference, the more ionic character in the bond. For the entire compound, we can look at its polarity from the arrangement of polar bonds through the 3D structure of the molecule.
