Which of the following are true of the properties of water?
A) Hydrogen bonds form between water molecules and are responsible for the high surface tension of water.
B) A water molecule is polar, and opposite ends of individual water molecules are attracted to anions and cations.
C) Water can dissolve materials by breaking apart ionic bonds as polar water molecules attract individual ions away from each other.
D) All of these

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All the statements provided about the properties of water are correct. Hydrogen bonds between water molecules contribute to its high surface tension. Water's polarity allows it to interact with both anions and cations, and its ability to dissolve materials is due to the way polar water molecules can separate ions from each other.
