Question

waters unique properties are due to its being a polar molecule. water has a positively charged side and a negatively charged side. this is a diagram of a molecule of water. drag the positive and negative symbols to the positively charged and negatively charged ends of the molecule.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen. In a water molecule, the oxygen - end has a partial negative charge due to its greater pull on the shared electrons, and the hydrogen - ends have partial positive charges.

Answer:

Place the negative symbol (-) near the oxygen atom (the large red sphere), and the positive symbol (+) near each of the hydrogen atoms (the small blue spheres).
