Matching

Indicate whether the statements below are TRUE or FALSE.If a statement is false, explain why it is false.

Premises:
Any covalently bonded H atom can participate in a hydrogen bond if it comes in close proximity with an oxygen atom that forms part of a water molecule.
Protons are constantly moving between water molecules, which means there is an overall equilibrium between hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions in aqueous solutions.
Electrons are always shared equally between covalently bonded atoms.
A strong base is defined as a molecule that can readily remove protons from water.
Responses:
True
