Question #159041

explain the concept of electronegative bonds and describe how this influences pure water as a solid, liquid and gaseous form?


Expert's answer

Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract electrons (or electron density) towards itself. It determines how the shared electrons are distributed between the two atoms in a bond. The more strongly an atom attracts the electrons in its bonds, the larger its electronegativity.


H2O have very large electronegative difference between O and H .
