The water molecule has a partial negative and partial positive charge because it is a polar molecule. Electrostatic attraction between the partial negative and partial positive molecules gives the water molecule its partial charge.
An atom or a molecule which has charge or a bond where the two atoms have partial charges.
It is a molecule, atoms are only of one type and though both have partial charges due to the way the bond is formed they are not ions in this state.
No. A polar molecule (such as water) has partial positive and negative charges at each end, but these partial charges balance out to zero overall, leaving the molecule as a whole neutral. This is due to electrons being shared unevenly be the atoms in the molecule. A "charged molecule" would not be called a molecule. It would be called a polyatomic ion. A polyatomic ions has an overall net charge due to there being a different number of protons and electrons.
true

Usually in electron-dot diagrams, partical charges are shown by the lower case delta
A polar molecule doesn't necessarily have any overall charge. All polar means is that one part of the molecule has a negative charge and another part of the same molecule has a positive charge. These charges balance. When the charges don't balance and there is a net charge, it is referred to as an ion. An example of a polar molecule is fluoro-methane, or CH3F. The fluorine attracts the electrons in the bond a lot harder than carbon. so the fluorine has a negative charge while the carbon atom ends up with a positive charge.
Water is a polar covalent molecule. The partial charges in the molecule attract other charges, ionic or more partial charges from other covalent molecules and dissolves them. Nonpolar bonded molecules have no partial charges and the water molecules will attract each other thus not attracting the nonpolar and does not dissolve them.
Polar molecules have separation of charges .ie. they have a partial positive and partial negative charges on molecule as in water . Non polar molecules e.g.methane has no separation of positive and negative charges as difference of electronegativity in C and H is very small .
It is a molecule, atoms are only of one type and though both have partial charges due to the way the bond is formed they are not ions in this state.
The Oxygen molecule and Hydrogen molecules have different electronegativity (due to position on Periodic Table). As Oxygen is more electronegative it draws the negatively charged electrons towards itself. This makes the hydrogen atoms more positive and hence the partial charges.
Polar molecules have partial negative and partial positive charges on opposing sides. They have a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges.
No. A hydrogen bond occurs when H is bonded to a strongly electronegative element like oxygen in a compound. The oxygen attracts the electrons in the bond stronger than the hydrogen setting up partial positive and partial negative charges in the H and O respectively in a single molecule. A nearby molecule with the same charges will be attracted (opposites attract, even with these partial charges.) This attraction from one molecule to another is a hydrogen bond because it involves the hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge.
A polar molecule...such as water. The oxygen molecules pulls the electrons closer, causing the oxygen to have a more negative charge and the two hydrogen atoms to have more positive charges. this is very important in the bonding of water molecules to other water molecules.
This is a polar molecule.
