Answer: A) polar molecule
Explanation: Polar molecules are molecules which contain atoms of different electronegativities.
Non polar molecules are molecules which contains atoms of same electronegativities.
Water is a polar covalent molecule formed by unequal sharing of electrons. Oxygen being more electronegative tend to keep the electron pair towards itself thus generating a partial negative charge. The hydrogen acquire a partial positive charge thus resulting in a polar molecule.
The bent shape is due to repulsion between lone pairs and bond pairs of electrons.
The enthalpy change for the formation step of this intermediate is 136 kJ/mol.
<h3>What is the enthalpy?</h3>
The enthalpy of reaction can be obtained from the enthalpies of formation of the species involved. The enthalpy of reaction is the heat evolved or absorbed in a reaction.
Thus, the enthalpy change for the formation step of this intermediate is 4 * 34 kJ/mol = 136 kJ/mol.

Oil doesn't dissolve in water, which could be your answer.
Explanation:
Different atoms binds their outermost shell electrons with different amount of energy.
The amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom is the ionization energy.
- Ionization energy measures the readiness of an atom to lose electrons.
- From the given problem, we can infer that in group O the ionization energy decreases down the group.
- Helium has the highest ionization energy.
- Down a group on the periodic table, ionization energy decrease because:
- atomic radii increases down the group.
- there is an increasing shielding/screening effect of inner shell electrons on the outermost shell electrons.
