Which contributes to the polarity of a water molecule?

Chemistry

Verizon [17]3 years ago

It’s molecular shape.

When the two hydrogen atoms bond with the oxygen, they attach to the top of the molecule rather like Mickey Mouse ears. This molecular structure gives the water molecule polarity, or a lopsided electrical charge that attracts other atoms. The end of the molecule with the two hydrogen atoms is positively charged.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

1. Energy intensity (primary energy consumption divided by GDP) for the world and various countries. The lower the value, the less energy is used to generate economic output, so lower means more efficient in a sense.

2.Lower Your Thermostat. Adopt the habit of lowering the temperature on your thermostat while away from home.

The compound methylamine, CH3NH2, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibrium
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

  • An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

The mixture which contains elements only is (a) air (b) brass (c) mineral water (d) seawater
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

So yes! A mixture can contain just elements if those elements are not chemically reactive to one another. Air is a great example of an elemental mixture as it contains nitrogen, oxygen, and argon (along with some other compounds).

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).
