Question

If water were a nonpolar molecule how would its properties be differentA. Water would be able to climb inside plants

b. Water would stick together much more strongly.
c. Water would no be able to form hydrogen bonds
d. Water would be a much lighter molecule

Answer 1

a, b and c properties would be different

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the polar property of water allows to create *ionic bonds* between the molecules.

The ionic bond occurs when the electrons of the water molecule are nearest to the oxigen nuclei than the hidrogen nuclei; creating a negative density arrounf the O and a positive density arround the H.

Then, the water molecules bonds like a magnet.
