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
What happens to an ionic compound if it is soluable?
the ions dissociate, they separate, the water pulls the ionic crystal apart
26
How do Covalent compounds dissolve?
the molecules separate rom each other, the solubility depends on the attractions between the molecules when they have charges
27
How does sugar dissolve in water?
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
