Understand that electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons in a chemical bond.
Recognize that when two atoms have the same electronegativity, the difference in electronegativity is zero.
Recall that a difference in electronegativity of zero means the electrons are shared equally between the two atoms.
Know that equal sharing of electrons between atoms results in a nonpolar covalent bond.
Conclude that since both atoms are oxygen with identical electronegativity, the bond formed is a nonpolar covalent bond.
