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!

Which is not an impact to the ecosystem after a drought?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

A. Floods will wipe out all the vegetation

Explanation:

Drought is an environmental condition characterized by scarcity of water. Less rainfall and reduced ground water levels facilitate drought like conditions. In the event of drought, animals face difficulty in finding food and water and thus are forced to migrate to other areas. However, flood is exact opposite to drought. It is caused by excess rainfall or increase in water level which destroys the ecosystem. It is not a characteristic of drought.
