Answer: The oxygen atom in a water molecule carries a negative electrical charge.
Explanation:
A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms.
Hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) is an intermolecular force having partial ionic-covalent character. H-bonding takes place between a hydrogen atom (attached with an electronegative atom e.g. O, N and F) and an electronegative atom (O,N and F).
In ,
, O is a highly electronegative atom attached to a H atom through a covalent bond. Therefore O atom gets partial negative charge and H atoms get partial positive charge.
Answer:
What best describes the concept of weight is the force on an object due to its mass and gravity.
Explanation:
Weight is the force with which gravity pulls a body or object towards the earth. It is a physical unit that involves both the force of gravity and the mass that an object has.
In general, the terms mass and weight are different, being the mass a characteristic of the body -without influence of other factors- and the weight is the force with which the gravity pushes the mass of that same body.
Regarding the other options:
- <em>The amount of space an object takes up
, corresponds to the volume of a body.</em>
- <em>The amount of matter in an object
, corresponds to the mass.</em>
- <em>The force on an object due to its speed and location, is related to the movement of a body.</em>
Answer:
Sound waves transfer energy by the motion of particles
Explanation: guessing lol
Among the choices, the polyatomic ion is only the third choice, NH4+ where it is composed of nitrogen one atom of nitrogen and 4 atoms of hydrogen. Choice 2 is a monoatomic atom being composed only of calcium. Then, the first and fourth choices are not ions because they are not charged.
Particles that are close together and locked in a place means its
a solid
