Which of the following best describes the structure of how water molecules form and interact?


A) Hydrogen atoms bond with each other to create stable outer shell of electrons. Then they form a hydrogen bond to an oxygen atom to create the water molecule.
B) Oxygen atoms transfer one electron to each of the hydrogen atoms forming an ionic bond that attracts other water molecules to it.
C) The oxygen atom and hydrogen atoms form a covalent bond with one another to create stable outer shells of electrons. The electrons are shared unequally resulting in a polar molecule whose slight charges form weak hydrogen bond attractions with other water molecules.
D) Hydrogen bonds are formed between the two hydrogen atoms and the oxygen atom. This water molecule than forms a covalent bond with adjacent water molecules.
E) The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the two hydrogen atoms. Due to this, it removes the electron from each hydrogen atom. This satisfies the outer shell of oxygen. Then hydrogen bonds form between the two remaining hydrogen atoms to hold them near to the oxygen atom.

The pH of pure water is ______ because ___________________________.


A) 7.0; water dissociates an equal number of H+ ions and OH-
B) 14.0; water dissociates and more OH- is formed because there are more hydrogen atoms in water
C) 1.0; water dissociates and more H+ is formed since hydrogen is smaller and can separate from the oxygen easily
D) 7.0; there are no ions formed in pure water
E) acidic; there are more H+ ions than OH- ions present
