Describe the chemical make up and type of bonding found in water molecules?

Biology

andre [41]2 years ago
4 0
Water molecules consist of 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen atom. They are bonded by a polar covalent bond, meaning the electrons shared by the covalanet bonds are not evenly distributed. Oxygen is more electronegative than Hydrogen and will pull the electrons from its bonds with Hydrogen closer to itself. Thus results in a partial positive dipole on the Hydrogen of the water molecule and a partial negative dipole on the Oxygen of the water molecule. These partial charges allow water to hydrogen bond with one another through a process called cohesion.

Which of the following does not accurately describe the forces that exist with an atom?
UNO [17]

Answer: Electrons positioned closer to the nucleus have a greater attraction to the protons and are more likely to be discharged from the atom than electrons farther away.

Explanation: The electrons being negatively charged repel each other due to like charges. The protons being positively charged are attracted towards the negatively charged electrons.

The electrons which are near to nucleus are more tightly held by the protons and thus are more difficult to remove from the atom. The electrons which are far from the nucleus are less tightly held and are easily removed from the atom.

artcher [175]
An enzyme is sensitive to the environmental conditions. It is affected by various chemical and physical factors. Changes in the environmental factors denatures the enzyme.

4 Variable affecting an enzyme function are as follows:
1. pH: An enzyme is affected by change in pH. Every enzyme has its own specific pH at which it works ideally. 
2. Temperature: An enzyme works best at ideal temperature. Increase or decrease in the temperature causes denaturation of enzyme.
3. ATP: Increase or decrease in the amount of ATP also affects the function of an enzyme.
4. Product: Increase or decrease in the amount of product also affects the ideal functioning of an enzyme.
