Answer from: maybellforever120215

Because it has a net dipole moment.

Explanation:

Water

(H2O) is a polar molecule because the electrons of the hydrogen atoms get "pulled" towards the electrons of the oxygen atom. This makes a region of positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and the negative charge on the other end of the molecule, which is the oxygen atom.

Answer from: reyne36

Since oxygen has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen, the electrons of the molecule tend to group closer to the oxygen than to the hydrogen atoms. as well as , water is said to be a "polar" molecule, which means that there is an uneven distribution of electron density.

Answer from: Quest

answer: carbon 14 can only be used to determine the age of the organisms that were once living, and igneous rocks are non living.

explanation:

carbon 14 dating is used to determine the age of the sample by estimating the amount of carbon 14 present in the sample and then comparing it with a reference standard.carbon 14 is a isotope of carbon which is radioactive and unstable. carbon 14 is assimilated by all plants and animals throughout their life from carbon dioxide. however, one the organisms die they stop this assimilation and the carbon 14 content starts to decrease.by knowing how much of carbon 14 is left in an organism after his death, one can estimate the age of the organism. the materials whose age can be estimated by carbon 14 method are the organic compounds. however, some inorganic compounds such as aragonite shell can also be dated.however, if we consider the igneous rocks it is a non living component which never accumulated carbon 14 in it and thus, we cannot use carbon 14 dating method to estimate its age.
