Answer:

Odd answer choices, but I would put "It shows you that water is a reversible reaction, which contains hydrogen and hydroxide reactions."

Explanation:

The first choice is weird, although water can be written as HOH that doesn't help you understand acids and bases.

The third choice doesn't do that either, and there are more ways for water to be formed than that.

The second choice helps you understand acids and bases, specifically, in water's self-ionization process. It also shows you that it is neutral because it is formed from Hydrogen, which is usually present in acids, and a Hydroxide group, which is usually present in bases.

Andreas93 [3]

Alkene on Hydration yield Alcohols. When Asymmetric Alkenes are treated with water in the presence of acid they follow Markovnikoff rule, and the Hydrogen of incoming reagent goes to that carbon which contain more number of Hydrogen atoms. The reverse (Anti-Markovnikoff) is done by carrying out Hydroboration reaction.In this case the Hydrogen atom of incoming reagent goes to that carbon which contains less number of Hydrogen atoms. In this reaction both -H and -OH adds in syn fashion. The Hydroboration reaction of Chloestrol is shown below,

Are ALL cations positive or negative ions

Mamont248 [21]

Answer: Ions result from atoms or molecules that have gained or lost one or more valence electrons, giving them a positive or negative charge. Those with a negative charge are called anions and those with a positive charge are called cations. Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. ... And all of them form an anion with a single negative charge. The VIA elements gain two electrons to form anions with a 2- charge.
