Question
the bonds labeled with a \1\ in the diagram are: nonpolar covalent bonds polar covalent bonds ionic bonds hydrogen bonds
The bonds labeled "1" are shown as dotted lines between a hydrogen atom of one water - molecule and an oxygen atom of another water - molecule. Hydrogen bonds occur when a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a highly electronegative atom (such as oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine) is attracted to another electronegative atom in a different molecule. In water, the oxygen is highly electronegative, creating a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen has a partial positive charge, allowing for hydrogen - bonding between water molecules. The other bond types (nonpolar covalent, polar covalent, ionic) do not match the description of these dotted - line bonds in the context of water molecules.
