Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: Which end of the water molecule is positively charged?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Comm.Dan

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Well there's a net negative charge toward the right-hand side, and a net positive charge toward the left-hand side. Water molecules are polar like so |dw:1360825260520:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so which end is possitivly charged?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Which end appears to be positively charged, from the pic? right or left?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

The hydrogen because the water is negatively charged.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so hydrogen is the positivly charged

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Correct

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

But it doesn't ask which atom... it asks which end. Left or right?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Yes Cuz the water is charge with a negative charge

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Charged is what I meant to say

OpenStudy (anonymous):

left right?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Never mind @katlin95

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Well... which side are the hydrogen atoms?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol left

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yes :P

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Anymore questions @katlin95

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: The part nearest the oxygen end of the molecule has what kind of charge?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Positive

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Well if the hydrogen end has a positive charge, then the oxygen end must have negative charge.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Hey @agent0smith Lets look at the pic more closely

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

It would have to be negatively charged meaning the oxygen molecule because you can't have 2 positively charged hydrogen atoms and a positively charged oxygen atom to make a water molecule because if they were all positive then the water molecule would be considered unstable

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Do u have a last question personally for me? @katlin95

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yeah, that's why the oxygen end is neg. charged - it has effectively 10 electrons and only 8 protons.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so @Comm.Dan is right?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Yes I am Cuz I have an A in Physical Science and love Science related stuff

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

And I know this stuff cuz I ask questions if I don't know If u r unsure @katlin95 Then look up on the internet

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Any last questions @katlin95

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes:)

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Go ahead I will multitask right now between this and writing a paper for Language Arts.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: In chemical terms, how do water molecules bond to other polar molecules?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

They bond to other polar molecules by the water molecules being positive and the other polar molecules are negative to make the combination become a negatively charged particle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The part of a water molecule nearest the oxygen atom and farthest away from the hydrogen atoms has a(n) A. slight positive charge. B. slight negative charge. C. no charge. D. uneven distribution of charges.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: In chemical terms, how do water molecules bond to other polar molecules? Van der Waals bonding.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

It depends on how many positive charge there are and how many negative charge there are. So what are the numbers for both.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

That is not an answer @agent0smith You have to choose one out of the four choices stated above because she is asking a multiple choice question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got B

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

The part of a water molecule nearest the oxygen atom and farthest away from the hydrogen atoms has a... slight negative charge. We basically answered this question already, though.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

@Comm.Dan there was no multi-choice on the question: Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: In chemical terms, how do water molecules bond to other polar molecules?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

I got B too because there is more positively charged atoms than negative and then the positively charged atoms take over the negatively charge particles, because there is too little of negatively charged particles. @katlin95

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When ionic compounds dissolve in water, they often dissociate (break apart) into individual A. molecular compounds. B. ions. C. isotopes. D. suspensions.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

ions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got that too:)

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

I got that too

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Because ionic compounds can't break into molecular compounds, isotopes, or suspensions.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

@Comm.Dan this answer: "I got B too because there is more positively charged atoms than negative and then the positively charged atoms take over the negatively charge particles, because there is too little of negatively charged particles." Is not why the oxygen end of a water molecule is slightly negatively charged. It's due to hydrogen atoms more easily "giving up" their electrons to oxygen, since it has a greater pull on the electrons.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Examine the water molecule pictured below and answer the following questions: The bonds holding this molecule together are covalent bonds. What have you learned about covalent bonds?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

They hold molecules together

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

A covalent bond is the chemical bond that involves the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms. The stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms when they share electrons is known as covalent bonding

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The bonds holding the atoms of a water molecule together are A. ionic. B. covalent. C. electronic. D. nuclear.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

C

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Sorry I meant B

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

Because this is a covalent compound, not an ionic compound.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got that too.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

K

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A molecule with one end positively charged and one end negatively charged is said to be a __________ molecule. A. polar B. nonpolar C. positive D. negative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got polar

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

I got that, too.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Correct, polar molecules have one +charged end, and one -charged end.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In a water molecule, two hydrogen atoms are bonded to A. two oxygen atoms. B. two carbon atoms. C. one carbon atom. D. one oxygen atom.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got A what did you guys get?

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Water molecules are H2O... that's 2 hydrogen, one oxygen.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What term is used to refer to how much of a substance is dissolved in a liquid? A. concentration B. dilution C. distribution D. solutions

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

concentration

OpenStudy (anonymous):

__________ is considered to be the greatest solvent in the world because it can dissolve so many substances. A. Hydrogen B. Oxygen C. Water D. Carbon

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

D

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

^D is not correct. @katlin95 Only one of those is a liquid at room temperature, that should give a big hint to the answer ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldnt it be water

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

^ correct!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In a solution of water and sodium chloride, the water is the solvent and the sodium chloride is the A. solute. B. suspension. C. acid. D. base.

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100% on my assignment thanks guys!!!

OpenStudy (comm.dan):

No problem. Did you finish all of it? @katlin95
