Consider a molecule where the central atom has one lone pair of electrons and is double-bonded to two other atoms (of a different element). Draw a general diagram of the molecule. Is this molecule likely a polar or nonpolar molecule? Briefly explain your reasoning, using words and the diagram.
Try Again Your answer is incorrect. • Row 4: Your answer is incorrect. Some soluble compounds are listed in the table below. Complete the table by filling in the name or chemical formula of each compound, whichever is missing. (If there is more than one way to name the compound, choose name used when the compound is dissolved in water.) Also classify the compound using checkboxes. compound HCH₂ CO₂ NH₂ NaClO4 H₂SO4 Explanation name acetic acid ammonia sodium perchlorate sulfuric acid Recheck type of compound (check all that apply) strong weak strong weak acid acid base base ionic molecular > 0 0 S
If you change the shape you can eliminate the molecular dipole, even though there are still polar bonds. It turns out that geometry, or shape, of the molecule is also important in determining if it is polar. Change the electronegativity of Atom C all so that it is all the way to the left under "less." Atom B is at "less and Atom A is at "more". What happened to the molecular dipole? O It points to B O it disappears Olt points to A It points to C
Water is considered the solvent of life. Water's polarity makes it unique, and this polarity is responsible for the life giving properties of water. In this short essay question, answer only one of the following questions, A OR B. In your first sentence, tell me if your answer is for A or B. NOTE that saying "water is polar, so it is cohesive", or "water is polar, so it moderates temperature", or "water is polar, so is more dense as liquid", with a description of how that life giving property is beneficial to life, does NOT answer this question! You must explain, in your OWN words, HOW the polarity of the water is mechanistically responsible for the life giving property you choose. Question B: Explain in detail how the polar nature of water allows fish to survive and swim around in the watery depths of Lake Baikal, Russia, all winter long in spite of the average air temperatures of minus 25 degrees Celsius in this frozen, snow covered region. What life giving property of water is…
Decide whether each molecule or polyatomic ion is polar or nonpolar. If the molecule or polyatomic ion is polar, write the chemical symbol of the atom closest to the negative side. For example, if the molecule were Ha and you decided the hydrogen atom was closest to the negative side of the molecule, you'd enter ":" in the last column of the table. molecule or polyatomic ion polar or nonpolar? atom closest to negative side polar HI O nonpolar O polar H,S O nonpolar O polar CH4 O nonpolar
