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.

lord [1]

Answer:

the ovary

Explanation:

The fertilized ovule becomes the seed, and the ovary becomes the fruit. Petals are also important parts of the flower, because they help attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies and bats. You can also see tiny green leaf-like parts called sepals at the base of the flower.

lara31 [8.8K]

To determine the name of an anion, you take the name of its element and replace the end with "ide".

<h3>What is an anion?</h3>

An anion in chemistry is a negatively charged ion.

Anions are usually formed when a non-metallic atom gains electron(s).

An anion is usually named by taking the elemental name, removing the ending, and adding “ide.

Examples of anions are as follows:

  • fluoride (F-)
  • Chloride (Cl-)
  • Iodide (I-)
