Which of the following is FALSE about the water molecule?
- Intermolecular forces among water molecules are the least extensive when it is in liquid form.
- The atoms comprising the water molecule are covalently bonded with one another.
- Its molecular geometry is not linear.
- The H atoms bear the partial positive charge.
