Polar bonds
Uneven distribution of charge for the entire molecule ( if there is a lone pair its polar )
Signs and pi bonds
Singles always have one sigma bond
Multiple bonds have an sigma bond and all other bonds are pi
Resonance structures
Produced when two or more structures can be drawn where the only difference is the placement of the electrons
