What is the difference between Covalent Bond and Coordinate Covalent Bond?
• In a covalent bond, both atoms are contributing same number of electrons to the bond, but in a coordinate covalent bond, two electrons are donated by a single atom.
• In a covalent bond, the electronegativity difference between the two atoms can be zero or a very low value, but in coordinate covalent bond, type of a polar covalent bond is forming.
• For a coordinate covalent bond to form, an atom in the molecule should have a lone pair.
