When water and hydroxide approach, will the two oxygen atoms attract or repel one another? they will attract by bonding like the oxygens in hydrogen peroxide, h-o-o-h. they will attract because they both carry negative charges. they will repel because they both carry negative charges. they will repel because atoms of the same element always repel?

They will repel because they both carry negative charges.

Explanation:

When water approaches hydroxide ions, the oxygen atoms will repel each other. Water on its own is a polar covalent compound. It has a positive and negative end.

Hydroxide is radical that is negatively charged. It consists of oxygen and hydrogen atoms.

The like charges on the oxygen atom will repel one another as a general rule of attraction. The oxygen will have more affinity for the hydrogen.

the correct name for the n3 ion is azide. azide is a polyatomic anion with a -1 charge and is written as n3 -1. it consists of three nitrogen atoms bonded together. hope i . let me know if you need anything else.
