Q

Polarity of Molecules is

A

a polar molecule is a molecule that has one end of the molecule that is slightly positive and the other slightly negative due to the unequal distribution of electrons

Q

If the polar bonds are symmetrical then

A

it is a nonpolar molecule

17
Q

if the polar bonds are asymmetrical then

A

it is a polar molecule

18
Q

What is solubility?

A

chemical property referring tot he ability for a given substance, the solute, to dissolve in a solvent

19
Q

what makes up a solution

A

solute and solvent

20
Q

What does soluability depend on

A

the structure/charges of the particles of the compount

21
Q

What do polar molecules and ionic compounds dissolve in?

A

polar solvents

22
Q

What do nonpolar molecules dissolve in

A

nonpolar solvents

23
Q

What do compounds with partial or complete charges dissolve in

A

compounds with partial or complete charges

24
Q

What do compounds with no charges dissolve in

A

compounds with no charges

25
Q

What happens to an ionic compound if it is soluable?

A

the ions dissociate, they separate, the water pulls the ionic crystal apart

26
Q

How do Covalent compounds dissolve?

A

the molecules separate rom each other, the solubility depends on the attractions between the molecules when they have charges

27
Q

How does sugar dissolve in water?

A

The positive and negative forces of water attract the sugar molecules and pull individual molecules away from the entire crystal, until all the molecules are separated and surrounded by water
