Description (with words) of water just above melting temperature. What intermolecular forces do you expect to find in water in liquid state

intermolecular dipole-dipole hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

Water is a polar molecule. Recall that the central atom in water is oxygen. The molecule is bent, hence it has an overall dipole moment directed towards the oxygen atom. Since it has a permanent dipole moment, we expect that it will show dipole-dipole interactions in the liquid state.

Similarly, water contains hydrogen and oxygen. Recall that hydrogen bonds are formed when hydrogen is covalently bonded to highly electronegative elements. Hence, water in the liquid state exhibits strong hydrogen bonding. The unique type of dipole-dipole interaction in liquid water is actually hydrogen bonding, hence the answer.

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
