10. Chemical Bonding

Which substance is an example of a nonpolar compound?

In a water molecule, $H_{2}O$, which atom carries a partial positive charge (${\delta }^{+}$) due to oxygen being more electronegative?

Match each of the Lewis structures (a to c) with the correct diagram (1 to 3) of its shape, and name the shape; indicate if each molecule is polar or nonpolar. Assume X and Y are nonmetals and all bonds are polar covalent. (6.6, 6.8, 6.9)1.
