Question

Why do covalent compounds show partial ionic character?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ionic Character. Remember that a covalent bond is when electrons are shared between two atoms. ... This will give one of the elements a partial negative charge from having the electrically charged electron more often and the other element a partial positive charge from not having the electron.

Answer 2

Answer:

when a covalent bond is formed between two atoms, one of them maybe more electronegative than the other so the one with higher electronegativity attracts the electron pair towards itself so it gets partial negative charge and the other one gets partial positive charge. this results in partial ionic character in covalent bonds.
