Which of the following statements is true of the bonds in a water molecule?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Yuri [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

oxygen holds electrons more tightly than hydrogen does, and the net charge is zero.

Explanation:

The bonds in water are covalent in nature.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial negative.

How many grams of water can be produce from the complete reaction of excess nitric acid and 33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide
Mariulka [41]

Mass of water produced : 0.146 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

33.2 mL of 0.245 M lithium hydroxide

Required

mass of water

Solution

Reaction

HNO₃ (aq) + LiOH (aq) → H₂O (l) + LiNO₃ (aq)

mol LiOH :

= M x V

= 0.245 x 33.2 ml

= 8.134 mmol

From the equation, the mol ratio of HNO₃ : H₂O = 1 : 1, so mol H₂O = 8.134 mmol

mass H₂O :

= mol x MW

= 8.134 x 10⁻³ mol x 18 g/mol

= 0.146 g
