Answer:

Each hydrogen atom is bonded to the oxygen atom with a single bond.

The oxygen atom has two lone pairs.

The molecule is bent.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen.

Each O-H bond is polar.

The molecule is asymmetrical.

The asymmetry and the polar bonds produce an overall molecular dipole.

The oxygen atom has a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen atoms have a partial positive charge.

calculate the heat required in joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of -20 c to liquid water at the normal

KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to convert ice to ice at 0⁰C

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 18 x 2.09 x 20

= 752.4 J .

heat required to convert ice at 0⁰C to water at 0⁰C

mass x latent heat of fusion

= 18 x 336

= 6048 J

Heat required to increase the temperature of water to 100⁰C

= 18 x 4.2 x 100

= 7560 J

Total heat required

7560 + 6048 + 752.4

= 14360.4 J
