Which describes the polarity in a water molecule?

a
partial positive charge on the oxygen atom because it pulls electrons from the hydrogen atoms

b
partial negative charge on the oxygen atom because its electrons are pulled toward the hydrogen atoms

c
partial negative charge on the oxygen atom because it pulls electrons from the hydrogen atoms

d
partial positive charge on the oxygen atom because its electrons are pulled toward the hydrogen atoms

Respuesta :

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom within water molecules form polar covalent bonds.

Water molecules do not have a net charge, but the polarity of water creates a slightly positive charge on hydrogen and a slightly negative charge on oxygen.

Answer:

partial negative charge on the oxygen atom because it pulls electrons from the hydrogen atoms
