(a) Predict the hybridization of the oxygen atom in water, H₂O. Draw a picture of its three dimensional structure, and explain why its bond angle is 104.5°.

(b) The electrostatic potential maps for ammonia and water are shown here. The structure of ammonia is shown within its EPM. Note how the lone pair creates a region of high electron potential (red), and the hydrogens are in regions of low electron potential (blue). Show how your three-dimensional structure of water corresponds with its EPM.
