Answer 1

Part A:

1. The statement that "the partial charge of the oxygen is negative and the partial charge of the hydrogen is positive" is True. In water (H₂O), oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, which leads to the oxygen atom having a partial negative charge and the hydrogen atoms having partial positive charges.

Part B:

2. When NaCl (salt) is added to water, the NaCl:
   • separates into ions (True)
   • most likely will conduct electricity (True)
   • does not separate into ions (False)
   • does not display covalent molecule properties (False)

Part C:

3. When sugar is added to water, the sugar molecule:

   • Has an attraction to the water molecules (True)
   • does not separate into ions (True)

4. The ionic substance between the two tested substances (NaCl or C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) is:

   • Salt (NaCl) (True)

5. Sugar is not considered an ionic substance because:

   • Because it does not contain charged particles and is made up of non-metals (True)
   • does not separate into its separate ions (False)
   • does not contain charged particles (True)
   • is not made up of metals and non-metals that are charged particles (False)
