Answer:

Something studied on the molecular level is the water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water is a molecule formed by two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, whose chemical representation is H₂O. It is a molecule whose polarity makes it a universal solvent of other polar molecules.

The molecular level corresponds to the level of organization where two or more atoms unite to form molecules or substances, united by chemical bonds. H₂O is studied at this level due to its chemical structure.

With respect to other options:

  • Hydrogen and oxygen are atoms, and correspond to the level of atomic organization.
  • Protons are particles that are part of an atom, and correspond to the subatomic level.
