Which statement is true about the electrons in each polar bond of a water molecule?

Chemistry

They are more attracted by the oxygen atom than by the hydrogen atom.

Explanation:

In the polar bond of water which is made up of hydrogen and oxygen atoms, the shared electrons are more attracted by the oxygen atom than by the hydrogen atom.  

The interatomic bond in water is a polar covalent bond.  

In this bond type, two species shares their valence electrons.  

The bond usually occurs between non-metals with an electronegativity difference that is small.

Oxygen is more electronegative compared to hydrogen.

  • This implies that oxygen pulls the electron more closely to itself since it has a greater affinity.
  • This leaves a partial negative charge on oxygen and a positive charge on hydrogen.
  • The molecule is said to be polar covalent.

Vinil7 [7]
Earth contains huge quantities of water in its oceans, lakes, rivers, the atmosphere, and believe it or not, in the rocks of the inner Earth. Over millions of years, much of this water is recycled between the inner Earth, the oceans and rivers, and the atmosphere. This cycling process means that freshwater is constantly made available to Earth's surface where we all live. Our planet is also very efficient at keeping this water. Water, as a vapor in our atmosphere, could potentially escape into space from Earth. But the water doesn't escape because certain regions of the atmosphere are extremely cold. (At an altitude of 15 kilometers, for example, the temperature of the atmosphere is as low as -60° Celsius!) At this frigid temperature, water forms solid crystals that fall back to Earth's surface.
Many people live faraway from freshwater sources. They need to carry their water home.
While our planet as a whole may never run out of water, it's important to remember that clean freshwater is not always available where and when humans need it. In fact, half of the world's freshwater can be found in only six countries. More than a billion people live without enough safe, clean water.
Also, every drop of water that we use continues through the water cycle. Stuff we put down the drain ends up in someone or something else's water. We can help protect the quality of our planet's freshwater by using it more wisely.

Describe a method to calculate the average atomic mass of the sample in the previous question using only the atomic masses of li
alexira [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate their average atomic masses which is otherwise known as the relative atomic mass, we simply multiply the given abundances of the atoms and the given atomic masses.

The abundace is the proportion or percentage or fraction by which each of the isotopes of an element occurs in nature.

This can be expressed below:

        RAM = Σmₙαₙ

where mₙ is the mass of isotope n

           αₙ is the abundance of isotope n

for this problem:

RAM of Li = m₆α₆ + m₇α₇

       m₆ is mass of isotope Li-6

        α₆ is the abundance of isotope Li-6

       m₇ is mass of isotope Li-7

        α₇ is the abundance of isotope Li-7
