Question

which statement below best describes this model? / ¿cuál de las siguientes afirmaciones describe mejor este modelo? oxygen atoms in other water molecules are also attracted to hydrogen atoms in other water molecules. / los átomos de oxígeno en otras moléculas de agua también son atraídos por los átomos de hidrógeno en otras moléculas de agua hydrogen atoms in water molecules are only attracted to other hydrogen atoms. / los átomos de hidrógeno en las moléculas de agua solo son atraídos por otros átomos de hidrógeno hydrogen atoms in water molecules are only attracted to an oxygen atom in the same water molecule. / los átomos de hidrógeno en las moléculas de agua solo son atraídos por un átomo de oxígeno en la misma molécula de agua oxygen atoms in water molecules are attracted to both oxygen and hydrogen atoms. / los átomos de oxígeno en las moléculas de agua son atraídos tanto por los átomos de oxígeno como por los de hidrógeno

Explanation:

The model shows water molecules. In water, oxygen atoms in other water - molecules are attracted to hydrogen atoms in other water molecules through hydrogen - bonding. This is a well - known property of water due to its polar nature. The other statements are incorrect as hydrogen atoms in water molecules are attracted to oxygen atoms in other water molecules (not just hydrogen atoms or only oxygen atoms in the same molecule), and oxygen atoms are mainly attracted to hydrogen atoms in other molecules through hydrogen - bonding, not to other oxygen atoms in the same way.

Answer:

Oxygen atoms in other water molecules are also attracted to hydrogen atoms in other water molecules.
