Question

Which of the following is true about the structure of water?
1. It is held together by an ionic bond
2. It is nonpolar
3. It is polar
4. It has one positive hydrogen attached to one negative oxygen

Answer 1

Answer:

3.) It is polar

Explanation:

Water is polar covalently bonded within the molecule. This unequal sharing of the electrons results in a slightly positive and a slightly negative side of the molecule. Other molecules, such as Ethane, are nonpolar, having neither a positive nor a negative side.
