Under standard precautions, the nurse should wear the following when cleaning a newly admitted infant with gastroenteritis after a vomiting episode: a single pair of disposable gloves, long-sleeved disposable gowns, mask, and protective eyewear in order to prevent the splatter of the infant's vomit to the eyes, mouth, and nose. Gastroenteritis is caused by a virus that gets transmitted from one person to another either by direct contact or airborne. Touching contaminated or exposed objects, hand-shaking, and sniffing are some of the modes of transmission.

Is water polar or nonpolar​
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Polar

A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule. That is, it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged. The molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The bonds between the atoms are called covalent bonds, because the atoms share electrons. The hydrogen atoms have one electron each.
