3. Why is water considered to be a Polar Covalent Molecule?

Biology
1 answer:
Finger [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A polar molecule simply means the charges are uneven throughout the molecule. Some parts are slightly negative (outside the oxygen), and some parts are slightly positive (outside the hydrogen atoms). A covalent bond happens when atoms share their electrons with each other. So, polar covalent just means that the atoms aren't sharing their electrons evenly, creating slight charges in the molecule. Water is polar covalent because the highly electronegative oxygen atom pulls electrons to it, making the region around the oxygen more negative than the areas around the two hydrogen atoms.

Why rapid binge drinking is more dangerous than slower consumption of alcohol?
Tpy6a [65]
The same way we never inject a full bag of anything quickly and intravenously. Your body would not be able to compensate for the amount of the substance. Alcohol or more importantly the Ethanol or Ethyl Alcohol in alcoholic beverages is the active ingredient of such beverages. It is also a drug called a CNS (Central Nervous System) depressant which means it is in the same class category of Opioids (Such as Heroin and Morphine) and Barbiturates (Rophynol). Your body processes alcohol via the liver, as it is also considered a toxin. By consuming a massive amount of alcohol without spacing it out, you will overload your system, not only literally overwhelming your liver and causing Alcohol Poisoning, but you also can go into a state similar to a Heroin overdose.
