How can you determine the bond polarity between two atoms?
In order to determine the bond polarity between two atoms, their respective electronegativities must be determined. Electronegativity is the tendency of a bonded atom to attract bonded electrons to itself. The difference in electronegativity,

The bond polarity between two atoms can be determined by calculating the difference in electronegativity values of the atoms involved. If the electronegativity difference is greater than 0.4, the bond is considered polar, with the more electronegative atom acquiring a partial negative charge and the less electronegative atom acquiring a partial positive charge.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
