Question
which of the following is influenced by the polarity of bonds in the water molecule? 1) its boiling point 2) dissolution of substances in water 3) its ability to stay as liquid over a wide range of temperature 4) all of the above 5) only b and c
The polarity of water - molecule bonds leads to hydrogen - bonding. Hydrogen - bonding affects water's boiling point, making it higher than expected. It also enables water to dissolve many substances as polar water molecules interact with solute particles. And it allows water to remain liquid over a wide temperature range due to the energy required to break hydrogen - bonds.
