C. Oxygen has a different attraction for electrons in H2O than in CO2

the covalent bond between Hydrogen-Oxygen and Carbon-Oxygen is different because the difference of electronegativity (the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself) between Hydrogen and Oxygen is a lot higher than the difference of electronegativity between Carbon and Oxygen. This difference in electronegativity results in separation of partial electric charge creating polar bonds and giving the molecule a polarity.

Answer:

These compounds have different shapes.

Explanation:

Two things determine whether a molecule is polar or no polar. The size and shape of the molecule.

A box full of charged plastic balls sits on a table. The electric force exerted on a ball near one upper corner of the box has c
tatuchka [14]

We have that the values for F north, F east, F up are

  • F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}
  • F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}
  • F_E=2*10^{-6}

From the Question we are told that

electric force F_1 = 1.2 x 10^{-3} N(N)

electric force , F_2=5.7 x 10^{-4} N(E)

electric force , F_3=2.2 x 10^{-4} N (U)

charge on this ball one q_1= 110 nC.

charge on this ball two q_2= -50 nC.

Generally the equation for the F north  is mathematically given as

F_N=\frac{F_1}{q_1}\\\\F_N=\frac{ 1.2 * 10^{-3} )}{110}

F_N=1.09090909*10^{-5}

For F East

F_E=\frac{F_2}{q_1}\\\\F_E=\frac{5.7 x 10^-4 }{110}

F_E=5.18181818*10^{-6}

For F UP

F_U=\frac{F_3}{q_1}\\\\F_U=\frac{2.2 x 10^-4 }{110}

F_E=2*10^{-6}
