Question
Chapter 2.3, Problem 2CYL
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The way in which polar covalent and hydrogen bonds contribute to the unique properties of water.
Introduction:
The molecules of water are bonded by the hydrogen bonds. The interconnections in the water molecules are provided by the hydrogen bonds. The larger molecules with non-polar covalent bonds are hydrophobic and other molecules are hydrophilic.

Describe the electrical charge, mass, and location of the threemajor subatomic particles in an atom?
According to chemist John Dalton, if one mole of nitrogen is combined with three moles of hydrogen to form one mole of ammonia (knowing that nitrogen, with an atomic number of 7, has an atomic mass of 14, and hydrogen, with an atomic number of 1, has an atomic mass of 1), then this compound will have an atomic weight (or molecular mass) of:
14 grams per mole (14 daltons)
17 grams per mole (17 daltons)
20 grams per mole (20 daltons)
22 grams per mole (22 daltons)
43 grams per mole (43 daltons)
Where within an atom are the three types of subatomic particles located?
