Explanation:

A proton and an electron have an equal amount but an opposite type of charge. Thus, if an atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons, the atom is described as being electrically neutral.

Identify each type of bond:
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The type of bond between the Oxygen atom and the hydrogen is Covalent

this is because the 2 electrons are being shared by both hydrogen and oxygen

The type of bond this molecule makes as a whole is called a Hydrogen Bond

A hydrogen bond is formed because of the partial +ve and -ve charge in a molecule

The cause of the partial +ve and -ve charge is the comparatively high electronegativity of oxygen which makes the electron get attracted towards the oxygen atom while the hydrogens try to maintain the maximum distance from the lone pairs due to repulsion

If the concentration of products is increased the equilibrium is shifted from * left to right/ to the left/ right to left /down
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

to the left

Explanation:

<u>If the concentration of products is increased for a reaction that is in equilibrium, the equilibrium would shift to the left side of the reaction (the reactant's side). </u>

For a reaction that is in equilibrium, the reaction is balanced between the reactants and the products. According to Le Cha telier's  principle, if one of the constraints capable of influencing the rate of reactions is applied to such a reaction that is in equilibrium, the equilibrium would shift so as to neutralize the effects created by the constraint.

<em>Hence, in this case, if the concentration of the products of a reaction in equilibrium is increased, the equilibrium would shift in such a way that more reactants are formed so as to annul the effects created by the increase in the concentration of the products. Since reactants are always on the left side of chemical equations, it thus means that the equilibrium would shift to the left.</em>

Why is nucleus of an atom charged is negatively charged?
Damm [24]

Answer:

Charge is caused by a flow of electrons, since electrons are around the nucleus they can be lost or gained by atoms. When an atom gets charged, it gains a charge, that is, it gains an electron. Since electrons are negatively charged, when an atom gains one, it also becomes negatively charged.
