Explanation:
The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles - a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.
Answer: 3) 39.96 amu
Explanation:
Mass of isotope Ar- 36 = 35.97 amu
% abundance of isotope Ar- 36= 0.337% =
Mass of isotope Ar- 38 = 37.96 amu
% abundance of isotope 2 = 0.063 % =
Mass of isotope Ar- 40 = 39.96 amu
% abundance of isotope 2 = 99.600 % =
Formula used for average atomic mass of an element :
Therefore, the average atomic mass of argon is 39.96 amu
