Why is water called "polar"?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Brilliant_brown [7]3 years ago
6 0

Water (H2O) is polar because of the bent shape of the molecule. The shape means most of the negative charge from the oxygen on side of the molecule and the positive charge of the hydrogen atoms is on the other side of the molecule. This is an example of polar covalent chemical bonding. When solutes are added to water, they may be affected by the charge distribution.

A saturated solution of potassium chlorate is dissolved in 100g of water. If the saturated solution is cooled from 90 degrees Ce
dedylja [7]

Mass would crystallize out : 24 g

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Solubility is the maximum amount of a substance that can dissolve in some solvents. Factors that affect solubility

  • 1. Temperature:
  • 2. Surface area:
  • 3. Solvent type:
  • 4. Stirring process:

We can use solubility graph to solve this.

solubility KClO₃ at 90°C=52 g

solubilty KCl₃ at 60°C= 28 g

Mass would crystallize out = 52 - 28 =24 g

What causes element name to change
amm1812
For example, iron plus oxygen can become ferric oxide. Both elements change their names. The change is used to indicate the kind of bonding process that is taking place. When iron and oxygen become ferric oxide, the iron has lost electrons and the oxygen has gained the electrons that iron lost. <span>
