Is H2O polar or non-polar?
YES ITS HIGHLY polar
Which is more polar NH3 or H2O?
h2o
Is H2O a nonpolar molecule?
H2O is actually a polar molecule. The molecule can split into two ions: H+ and OH-
Using intermolecular forces explain why water is a liquid at room temperature but ammonia is a gas.?
The simplest answer is polarity. As I'm sure you know, both water and ammonia form hydrogen bonds with like molecules. But the critical difference is that water is a polar molecule and has a dipole moment, whereas ammonia is non-polar and does not have a dipole moment. A dipole moment is the result of polar bonds. It is important to note that having polar bonds DOES NOT necessarily make a molecule polar. Imagine that the bonds on a molecule pushes the nucleus in the direction of the bond. In a molecule with all of its bonds evenly spaced and of the same type (Hydrogen to Nitrogen, for example), such as in NH3, all of the bonds cancel each other out. But in a molecule with its bonds unevenly spaced, such as in H2O, the bonds do not cancel each other out, resulting in a dipole moment.
Is H2O a formula that represents a nonpolar molecule?
No, H2O is a very polar molecule
Are the bonds in H2O polar?
yes
Why H20is non polar covalent bond?
H2O has polar covalent bonds, not non-polar covalent bonds.
In the compound H2O the electrons in the bonds are unequally shared between oxygen and hydrogen forming what?
H2O, dihydrogen monoxide, is a compound formed by sharing electrons. Water, or H2O, is a polar covalent bond which means that is has an unequal sharing of electrons.
Is H2O a covalent compound?
Yes. It has polar covalent bonds.
In the compound H2O the electrons in the bonds are unequally shared between oxygen and hydrogen forming .?
polar bonds
Why H2O is more polar than H2S?
Oxygen is more electronegative than sulfur, resulting in more polar bonds with hydrogen.
What type of bond do H2O contain?
The bonds between H-O atoms are polar bonds (polar-covalent) angled in about 105o. But the intermolecular attraction between two or more molecules of water result in weaker hydrogen bonds.
What type of bond holds hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the molecule h2o?
The hydrogen and oxygen are held together by polar covalent bonds.
What substances contains a nonpolar covalent bond mgf2 nacl nh3 h2o n2?
MgF2 and NaCl are ionic. NH3 and H2O contain polar covalent bonds. N2 contains non polar covalent bond.
What is polar and non-polar molecule?
When the charge between molecules hasn't completely cancelled out. Br2 will cancel- vdw forces H2O will not- dipole-dipole bonds
Is H2O a Polar molecule?
H2O is a water molecule, which is polar.
What is an example of a polar bond?
HCl has the polar bond. Another polar bond is H2O, or water. And all those bonds are polar in which two atoms have a difference of electronegativities between 0.5 and 1.7 and their dipole moment is not zero.
