How Does the Molecular Structure of a Water Molecule Affect

question 119

Multiple Choice

How does the molecular structure of a water molecule affect its polarity?

• A) The oxygen has a partial positive charge and the hydrogens have a partial negative charge,yielding a weakly polar water molecule that can form hydrogen bonds.
• B) The oxygen has a partial negative charge and the hydrogens have a partial positive charge,yielding a weakly polar water molecule that can form hydrogen bonds.
• C) The oxygen and hydrogen rapidly exchange electrons in their outermost energy shells,producing structures that can form hydrogen bonds.
• D) The oxygen takes an electron from each hydrogen,yielding a negatively charged oxygen and two positively charged hydrogens that can form hydrogen bonds.
• E) The oxygen donates an electron to each hydrogen,yielding a positively charged oxygen and two negatively charged hydrogens that can form hydrogen bonds.
