Best Answer

In most compounds, the nitrogen in NH2 has a partial negative charge while the hydrogen each carry a partial positive charge.

It can also exist as the Amide ion with a full negative charge.

What struggle produces the partial negative and partial positive charges on a water molecule?

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.


What is a molecule that has a partial positive charge on one end a partial negative charge on the other?

This is a polar molecule.


Which water molecule has a partial positive charge?

hydrogen is partially positive and oxygen is partially negative so your answer is oxygen


Dipoles arise when?

One end of a molecule or atom has a partial negative charge and the other end has a partial positive charge.


What is positively and negatively charged in a water molecule?

it says oxygen acts negativw so most likely hydrogen on the bottom acts positive


What causes the water molecule to have a negative charge?

The water molecule does not have a negative charge. The oxygen end of the molecule has a partial negative charge and the hydrogen end has a partial positive charge. This is because the oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, and tends to hold the shared electrons more tightly than the hydrogen atoms.


What constitutes a polar bond?

A polar bond is one in which there is a difference in electronegativity. One side/end of the compound is more negative (partial negative charge; higher electronegativity) than the other (partial positive charge; less electronegative).


Polar molecules they attrack to other substances?

Polar molecules have unequal distribution of electrons. Water for example, oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen so it will pull electrons towards itself, giving oxygen partial negative charge on it and partial positive charge on the hydrogen. A hydrogen bond forms between the partial negative charge on oxygen on another water molecule and partial positive charge on hydrogen on other water molecule.


Is the oxygen atom slightly negative?

If it is just O2, no. However in many of its compounds oxygen does obtain a partial negative charge.


Does the carbon atom have the delta negative charge in the carbon-chlorine bond?

No, as t is less electronegative it has a partial positive charge.


Why do you think polar and nonpolar molecules do not mix?

Polar molecules happen when there is an unequal sharing of electrons in a covalent bond. This leads to a partial positive change on one molecule and a partial negative charge on the other. An example of this is water (H2O). The hydrogens have partial positive charges and the oxygen has a partial negative charge.


What kind of charge would the hydrogen atoms have compared to the oxygen?

I'm assuming you mean when they're bonded to each other - oxygen is more electronegative, so it will have a partial negative charge, and hydrogen will have a partial positive charge.
