The carbon-fluorine (C-F) bond is a chemical bond between carbon and fluorine atoms. It is characterized by several important features: 1. **Polarity**: The C-F bond is highly polar due to the significant difference in electronegativity between carbon (2.5) and fluorine (3.98). This polarity means that the bond has a partial negative charge on the fluorine atom and a partial positive charge on the carbon atom.
