This question comes with four answer choices:
<span>A. H2O + H2O ⇄ 2H2 + O2
B. H2O + H2O⇄ H2O2 + H2
C. H2O + H2O ⇄ 4H+ + 2O2-
D. H2O + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + OH-
Answer: option </span><span>D. H2O + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + OH-
(the +sign next to H3O is a superscript, as well as the - sing next to OH)
Explanation:
The self-ionization of water, or autodissociation, produces the two ions H3O(+) and OH(-). The presence of ions is what explain the electrical conductivity of pure water.
</span><span>In this, one molecule of H2O loses a proton (H+) (deprotonates) to become a hydroxide ion, OH−. Then, he <span>hydrogen ion, H+</span>, immediately protonates another water molecule to form hydronium, H3O+.

Hello!
Your answer would be polar covalent.
Covalent bonds are where two atoms come together, and share electrons between each other, and are therefore, bonded.
In some cases of molecules that are bonded with a covalent bond, one of the atoms is more, you could call it selfish, and takes more of the electrons. A prime example of this is H20, or water. One of the atoms takes the electrons for longer, and therefore has a more negative charge because electrons are counted as negative charges.
This bond where an atom "hogs" electrons, is called a polar covalent bond, respective to the changing charges for the atoms.
So your answer is d.
Hope this helped!
Sodium (NA)
the sodium atom is donating its 1 valence electron to the chlorine atom. This creates a sodium cation and a chlorine anion. Notice that the net charge of the resulting compound is 0.
The concentration of [H3O⁺]=2.86 x 10⁻⁶ M

In general, the weak acid ionization reaction
HA (aq) ---> H⁺ (aq) + A⁻ (aq)
Ka's value
Reaction
HC₂H₃O₂ (aq) + H₂O (l) ⇔ (aq) + H₃O⁺ (aq) Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵
[H₃O⁺]=2.86 x 10⁻⁶ M
