  1. This blog was presented in an organized manner. It flowed from topic to topic in an orderly fashion.
    The pictures of the model were clear and concise. Based on my knowledge, the pictures of the molecule had the correct number of atoms and the appropriate bonding.
    Just as you said, the molecule is polar because of the positive charge of Hydrogen on one side and the negative charge of Oxygen on the other.
    Also, you were right in saying statement that the forces of dispersion, dipole dipole, and hydrogen bonding were present if the molecule of ethanol was attracted to itself.
    The ad was quite appealing to me because of the quality of selling points included in it. Overall, you gave excellent information and did a fantastic job!

  2. This blog was easy to look at and very organized. All of the information was easy to find.
    According to my knowledge of molecules all of the pictures seemed accurate and neat.
    Because of the uneven atom distribution, yes the molecule is polar.
    The blog correctly determined that three intermolecular forces bond the molecule.
    The advertisement was very descriptive and sold the molecule very well! I think your blog was well done.
