when ice is heated into steam what types of bonds are not broken during heating?
A ionic bond
B dative bond
C covalent bond
D Hydrogen bond
Answers
Answer:
hydrogen bond
Explanation:
First of all I’ve to highlight which bond is broken passing from liquid water to steam. This bond is an electrostatic bond between oxygen of a water molecule and hydrogen of others water molecules. This bond is due to the polarity of water molecule; in fact, inside water molecule the two electron clouds of molecular orbitals of covalent bonds (O–H) are slightly deformed with a higher electron density on oxygen, which is the most electronegative atom, and a lower electron density on the two hydrogens atoms, which are more electropositive. Therefore, oxygens are slightly negatively charged and hydrogens positively, thus generating the "hydrogen bond." ( the covalent bonds these bonds cannot be broken passing through the two transitions (melting and boiling points))
