Water is dipolar because: A. It has two hydrogens, each of which pulls oxygen's electrons and separates the
charges into two areas.
B. Oxygen pulls electrons closer to itself than hydrogens, giving the oxygen a
slight negative and hydrogens a slight positive charge.
C. Oxygen pulls electrons closer to itself than hydrogens, giving the oxygen a
slight positive and hydrogens a slight negative charge.
OD. It has two hydrogens, each of which has its own polar area.

B. Oxygen pulls electrons closer to itself than hydrogens, giving the oxygen a slight negative and hydrogens a slight positive charge.

Explanation:

In the water molecule (H2O), an oxygen atom is bonded to two hydrogen atoms. Oxygen atom is much more electronegative (has more attraction for electrons) than hydrogen atom, hence, it pulls electrons from one one of the hydrogen atoms bonded to it making it more negatively charged and the hydrogen atom, more positively charged.

The possession of positive charge (+) and negative charge (-) in the same molecule, caused by uneven flow of electrons is what it means to be DIPOLAR (from dipole). Hence, water is DIPOLAR because oxygen pulls electrons closer to itself than hydrogens, giving the oxygen a slight negative and hydrogens a slight positive charge.

first let us lay out the formula for potential

and kinetic energy:

pe = mgh

ke = (mv^2)/2

where: m=mass, v=velocity, g=gravitational

acceleration, h=height

calculating for mass using the known values of

pe:

340j = m (9.81 m/s^2) (50ft) (1m/3.28ft)

m = 2.27 kg

the law of conservation of energy states that

energy is neither created nor destroyed. therefore, the change in kinetic

energy from 50 ft to 35 ft would be equal to the change in potential energy

from 50 ft to 35 ft. however it would be opposite in signs since one is losing

while other is gaining.

ke(35ft) – ke(50ft) = - [ pe(35ft) – pe(50ft]

ke(50ft) = 0 since the brick is initially at rest

ke(35ft) = 340j - 2.27kg (9.81 m/s^2) (35ft)

(1m/3.28 ft)

ke(35ft)

= 102.38 j
