A water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
What else can I help you with?
Is water a nonpolar compound?
no... water is a polar compound
Which compound is least likely to dissolve in water ionic compound charged compound polar compound or non polar compound?
Non-polar compounds are least likely to dissolve in water because water is a polar solvent and non-polar compounds do not interact well with polar substances. Ionic compounds and charged compounds are more likely to dissolve in water due to their ability to interact with the polar water molecules.
Why sodium chloride dissolved in water'?
Water is a polar solvent and NaCl is an ionic compound.
Is water a Nonpolor compound?
No. It is polar.
Define polar compound and give an example?
A polar compound is a molecule that has a slight positive and negative charge due to differences in electronegativity between its atoms. This results in an uneven distribution of electrons within the molecule. An example of a polar compound is water (H2O).
Is water a ionic?
No. Water is a polar covalent compound.
Why does NaCl dissolve in an aqueous solution?
Because sodium chloride and water are ionic compounds.
Is water a non-polar solvent?
No, water is a polar solvent because of the polar oxygen-hydrogen bonds and the geometry of the compound.
Does water dissolve polar compound?
yes
Are kerosene and oil soluble?
No. Kerosene is an organic compound. and water is a non-organic compound. (kerosene : non-polar Water : polar). As water is a polar solvent kerosene is not soluble in it. but kerosene is soluble in ethyl alcohol which is a non-polar solvent.
Is vinegar an ionic covalent or polar covalent compound?
Vinegar is a polar covalent compound. It is composed of acetic acid (a covalent compound) and water (a polar compound), giving it polar characteristics due to the presence of partial positive and negative charges.
What happens to nonpolar-covalent bonds when dissolved in water?
A non-polar compound is not miscible with water, which is a polar solvent. Hence, we cannot dissolve a non-polar compound inside water. Thus, when you mix them together within a container, the compound and water will continue to stay as 2 miscible distinct layers.
