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.

Silicon

Explanation:

One of the most similar elements to carbon on periodic table is silicon. Several compounds formed between carbon or silicon and other elements are identical.

Carbon is an element found in life forms as a building block while silicon is a building block of machine components such as semiconductors

Silicon is an element that can sustain bonds, similar to carbon bonds and it is situated directly under carbon on the periodic table

Conduction

Explanation:

If one touches a hot iron, the mode of heat transfer is conduction. Heat moves from a region of higher temperature to one at lower temperature until thermal equilibrium is established.

  • There are three modes of heat transfer which are conduction, convection and radiation.
  • Heat transfer by contact of one body with another is conduction. A hot body in contact with a cold one transfers heat by the vibration of particles of the medium.
  • This is exemplified when a hot pot is touched.

After swimming in the ocean for several hours, the swimmers noticed that their fingers appeared to be very wrinkled or shriveled
MatroZZZ [7]
<span>The answer is hypertonic. In osmosis, water molecules move from a hypotonic solution to the hypertonic solution, through a semipermeable membrane. This occurs until both solutions become isotonic relative to each other.  In osmosis, only the movement of water molecules occurs since the ions are large enough to pass through the pores of the semipermeable membrane, in this case, the cell membrane. Due to loss of water in the process of osmosis, the cells in the fingers of the swimmers shrunk hence looked shriveled.</span>
