What is polarity? what traits make water polar?

Biology
1 answer:
zhenek [66]3 years ago

What makes molecules polar: an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.

- So, a water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.

- Water has a neutral charge.

- Because of their partial positive and negative charges, polar molecules, such as water, attract each other like magnets.

- The attraction between a hydrogen atom with a partial negative charge and another atom with a partial positive charge is called a hydrogen bond.

- Because water is a polar molecule, it is able to form multiple hydrogen bonds, which is why water has many special properties (hydrogen bonds are the strongest bonds that can form between molecules).

Hope this helps!

What are the different steps to cellular respiration?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Steps to cellular respiration:

1) In the first step of respiration, glycolysis occurs in which glucose molecule is converted into pyruvate molecule.

2) Krebs cycle is also called citric acidity cycle. In this cycle, hydrogen and electron are produced from the oxidation of pyruvate molecule and provides to electron transport chain.

3) Electrons carried by NADH + H and FADH2 are converted into oxygen through a series of electron carriers, and production of ATP occurs.

Name and describe all of the weather fronts.
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

four different types of weather fronts: cold fronts, warm fronts, stationary fronts, and occluded fronts.

a air front is a weather system that is the boundary separating two different types of air. One type of air is usually denser than the other, with different temperatures and different levels of humidity.

A cold weather front is defined as the changeover region where a cold air mass is replacing a warmer air mass. Cold weather fronts usually move from northwest to southeast. ... Warm fronts usually move from southwest to northeast and the air behind a warm front is warmer and moister than the air ahead of it.

Stationary Front - a front between warm and cold air masses that is moving very slowly or not at all.

Occluded Front - a composite of two fronts, formed as a cold front overtakes a warm
