If water was a non polar molecule how would the properties of water be different

Polar : A polar molecule has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges from polar bonds arranged asymmetrical !! They are totally neutral !!

Non polar : The molecule which has symmetrical bonding as there is no shift in electron pair !!

So if water was non polar , Boiling point decreases , Surface tension decresases , Density goes down !! and many more !!

What are polar and non-polar molecules?

→ A polar molecule is a molecule which contains both negative and positive charges in one moleucle, although they're not that strong. You might say they're haf positive and half negative (but not neutral).

→ A non-polar molecule is a molecule which is either sharing an equivalent amount of electrons between the atoms inside it, or because it has a symmetrical, linear geometry. In these molecules, there is also no dipole.


How does that affect the water's properties?

So, just a tiny atomic-sized change can influence on how the water interacts with their environment. No matter how small the change is, if it changes a basis of the waters properties, it'll affect the properties itself, of course.


Moving on to the changes. What are some noticable changes?

We can see in the 2 explanations above, that, there is a difference between bonding and atom aranging in non-polar and polar molecules. This can affect things such as surface tension, and the hydrogen bonds.

We also see there is a difference in the charge of atoms, and therefore the charge of the molecule, which can affect conductivity and the interaction of water with other molecules specially ions.

→ There will also be more physical changes, rather than only chemical ones, but the 2 above are the most noticable and probably important ones.




Hope it helped,

Which beverage is the best example of a colloid?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

c . milk

Explanation:

Colloid are those whose particles are larger than the size of molecule.The size of particle is one nano meter.Collide particle range is between 1 to 1,000 nano meter. Every collide particle is consist of two parts colloidal particle and dispersion medium.

Milk is one of them.Collide are made form solid liquid and gas.

milk is the example of liquid collide.

How do ocean currents affect temperature? Check all that apply
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Ocean currents are the continuous, predictable, directional movement of seawater driven by gravity, wind (Coriolis Effect), and water density. Ocean water moves in two directions: horizontally and vertically. Horizontal movements are referred to as currents, while vertical changes are called upwellings or downwellings.They carry cold water from the poles to the equator and cool air over land.  They move warm water from the equator to the poles and heat air over land.

Explanation:

They carry cold water from the poles to the equator and cool air over land.  They move warm water from the equator to the poles and heat air over land.
