Answer:

A combination is certainly possible, but you should not take formal charges so literally

Normally, when a covalent bond is found, the two atoms both bring in one electron. As you identify correctly, in the case of nitric acid that would not be possible completely. If you draw the different possible resonance structures, the most likely structure has a single bond between the nitrogen and an oxygen where the oxygen has 3 lone pairs and both electrons in the bond are donated by the nitrogen. This makes the nitrogen "positive" and that oxygen "negative", but in fact the electrons move more freely in the molecule and charges are more distributed. You will not be able to find "the negatively charged" oxygen atom.

What is the hydrophobic effect? what types of atoms are most likely to be found in portions of molecules or entire molecules tha

HACTEHA [7]

Hydrophobic in simple terms is the "fear" of water.

In chemistry, Ionic salts are technically hydrophilic as they will dissolve in water.
most fats and oils or triesters won't why?

salts are made from ions and their structure contain polar bonds Na+ and Cl-
Fats and oils tend to not have these.

Fats and oils contain many carbon covalent bonds which are non-polar which tend to make the molecule non-polar as a whole, therefore, it can't dissolve in water and is said to be hydrophobic.

Hope that heps :)

The abnormally high boiling point for water is due to...

Svetach [21]

Extensive hydrogen bonding.

It takes a lot of energy to break hydrogen bonds and turn liquid water into a gas, therefore the boiling point for water is high.
