Which characteristic is a property of water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rus_ich [418]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation:

Polar molecules are molecules in which formation of partial charges takes place due to which dipole moment gets created in a molecule. Molecules with polar bonds that s bond with partly ionic character. And water is of the example of polar molecule.

Electronegative oxygen atom in water molecule attracts the electron bond pair towards itself which generates partial negative charge on oxygen atom and partial positive charge on both hydrogen atoms.

Where as water has higher value surface tension due to strong intermolecular association of the water molecule due to presence of hydrogen bonding.And it is more denser is liquid state than in its solid state.

Hence,the correct answer is option (A).

What is the atomic number of the atom in the diagram above please ?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. Protons are the positively charged particles in the nucleus. The number of protons define the identity of an element. An element with 5 protons is Boron, no matter how many neutrons may be present.

2 of 20 Which intermolecular force or bond is primarily responsible for the solubility of CH3OH in water? lonic bonding Hydrogen
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

As a rule of thumb, "likes dissolve like", meaning polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents and nonpolar solutes in nonpolar solvents. In this case, water is polar (<em>dipolar moment</em> = 1.85 Debye) dissolves methanol which is also polar (<em>dipolar moment</em> = 1.69 Debye). Besides being dipoles, both molecules have atoms of Hydrogen with a covalent bond to more electronegative atoms of Oxygen. When this happens, stronger dipole-dipole interactions appear known as Hydrogen bonding. There is an electrostatic attraction between H (positive charge density) and O (negative charge density).
