The correct answer is "B. Make a Hypothesis".
Answer:
I believe it's the lowest portion of the atmosphere
Since water molecules are polar. Unequal sharing of electrons between the elements that make it. The hydrogen atoms would experience a slight partial positive charge as the electron density is more close to the oxygen atom making it partially negative.
The chemical formula is
composed of hydrogen and oxygen where the two atoms are bonded through hydrogen
bond type of bonding. In this pair, the oxygen is the more electronegative atom
hence the electrons are more directed to it. Because of this, this creates
electron polarity which affects the chemical property of water.

The factors that affect the rate of a reaction are:
- <em>nature of the reactant</em> - when reactants with different chemical composition are exposed to same conditions they would react differently. For instance, when an acid or base is added on litmus paper, blue litmus paper turns red in presence of acid while red litmus paper turns blue when base is added.
- <em>surface area</em>- a compound with small pieces spread over a large area will react faster than a big lump of a compound occupying a small area.
- <em>temperature of reaction</em>- reactants would react faster at high temperatures. this is because they have higher kinetic energy to collide with each other. Hence a plate of food on the table spoils faster than a plate of food in the fridge.
- <em>concentration</em>- an increase in concentration leads to more molecules available to collide and form products. An example, when you add more of indicator in a solution, the color becomes more clear since more particles react to give more color.
- <em>presence of a catalyst</em>- a catalyst lowers the activation energy, which means less energy is required to shift reaction in forward direction. In the presence of iron (Fe) a catalyst, nitrogen N₂ and hydrogen H₂ react to produce NH₃
