<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is a partial negative charge.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is a molecule which is made by the combination of hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

Hydrogen and oxygen are both non-metals. Thus, the bond between them will be formed by the sharing of electrons and this bond is known as covalent bond.

Oxygen atom is more electronegative than hydrogen atom which means that it will attract the shared pair of electron more towards itself.

Charge on oxygen and hydrogen atom in water molecule: H^{\delta +}-O^{\delta -}-H^{\delta +}

Hence, oxygen atom will carry a partial negative charge due to the formation of covalent bond.

H-O bond is a covalent polar bond, also O is more electronegative than H, so

The oxygen atom in water molecule has

a partial negative charge.

What method would you use to separate sand from gasoline?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Filtration (The process of separating liquids and solids)

Explanation:

Filtration works best when the solute isn't dissolved in the solvent. Basically like how you can filter dirt or sand from water. The opposite of this would be if water and sugar where mixed together you cannot unmix this duo with filtration but with the example given you can use the process of filtration to rid the gasoline of sand.

alex41 [277]
<span>1. Balance the reaction
Cu + 2AgNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag 
2. Find the limiting [divide moles of reactant by their balancing numbers]
Cu: 4.2/1 =4.2 
AgNO3: 6.3/2= 3.15 
AGNO3 is the limiting
How many moles of silver metal will be formed?
The ratio between the limiting reactant and silver is 2:2 or 1:1
therefore 6.3 moles of silver will be formed.

How many moles of excess reactant will be left?
Since each mole of copper is equal to 2 moles of AgNO3. divide 6.3 by 2 then minus it from coppers moles
6.3/2 = 3.15
4.2-3.15 = 1.05 moles of copper will be left
