Question
what is true of a molecule of gaseous hydrogen (h₂)?
it has no net charge.
it has a partial positive charge.
it has one partial positive charge and one partial negative charge which are balanced.
Brief Explanations
A gaseous hydrogen molecule ($H_2$) consists of two identical hydrogen atoms bonded by a nonpolar covalent bond. In nonpolar bonds, electrons are shared equally, so there are no partial charges, and the molecule has an overall neutral (zero net) charge.
