A water molecule is composed of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom arranged in a bent shape. Since oxygen is significantly m

ore electronegative than hydrogen, oxygen atoms have a much stronger attraction to shared electrons than does hydrogen. This unequal sharing of electrons and bent shape results in water being called a _________________ .

Answer: A)  polar molecule  

Explanation: Polar molecules are molecules which contain atoms of different electronegativities.

Non polar molecules are molecules which contains atoms of same electronegativities.

Water is a polar covalent molecule formed by unequal sharing of electrons. Oxygen being more electronegative tend to keep the electron pair towards itself thus generating a partial negative charge. The hydrogen acquire a partial positive charge thus resulting in a polar molecule.

The bent shape is due to repulsion between lone pairs and bond pairs of electrons.

5. In this lab, you continued to add Reagent D to each solution until it turned blue. The purpose was to remove the oxygen to me
Basile [38]
A solution is turning blue means, it is turning it's behavior to Basic from Acidic. Reagent D must be a Basic component so it is increasing the pH of the solution. As reaction does not depend on the phase of the component, it could be anything i.e., Solid, Liquid or gas.

Hope this helps!

The concentration of ozone in a sample of air that has a partial pressure of O3 of 0.33 torr and a total pressure of air of 695
Goryan [66]

Answer:

0.047 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Partial pressure of ozone (pO₃): 0.33 torr
  • Total pressure of air (P): 695 torr

Step 2: Calculate the %v/v of ozone in the air

Air is a mixture of gases. We can find the %v/v of ozone (a component) in the air (mixture) using the following expression.

<em>%v/v = pO₃/P × 100%</em>

%v/v = 0.33 torr/695 torr × 100%

%v/v = 0.047 %
