What cause the slight positive (8+) and negative (8-) poles on a molecule of H20?

Biology
1 answer:
taurus [48]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

In the covalent bond between oxygen and hydrogen, the oxygen atom attracts electrons a bit more strongly than the hydrogen atoms. The unequal sharing of electrons gives the water molecule a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms

Because of the water molecule's bent shape and its atoms' unequal sharing of electrons, it has partial positive (δ+) and partial negative (δ-) poles. ... A hydrogen bond occurs when molecules that have hydrogen covalently bonded to oxygen, nitrogen or fluorine interact.

How do protons contribute towards making ATP?...
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer: Protons contribute towards making ATP by producing proton-motive force that provides energy for ATP synthesis.

Explanation: In the respiratory chain, the transfer of electrons from one complex to another is accompanied by pumping of protons out of the matrix. This creates a difference in proton concentration and separation of charge across the mitochondrial inner membrane. The electrochemical energy inherent in this difference in proton concentration called proton-motive force is used to drive ATP synthesis as protons flow back passively into the matrix through a proton pore.
