Water Flashcards
one oxygen atom bound by single covalent bonds to two hydrogen atoms, polar molecule
water
London forces, dipole-dipole forces, and hydrogen bonds
Van der Waals forces
intermolecular bonds between molecules are ___ than covalent and ionic bonds
weaker
the weakest intermolecular force, formed by the temporary unequal distribution of electrons as they move about the nuclei, they allow electrons of one neutral atom to attract the nucleus of neighbouring atoms
london forces
hold polar molecules to one another, as one side of the polar molecular becomes partially positive and attracts the partial negative side of an adjacent polar molecule
dipole-dipole forces
bonds occurs because there is an attraction between the partial negative pole of one water molecule and the partial positive pole of another molecule of water
hydrogen bond
the different ions have separated and dissolved in the water
dissociation
compounds that interact with water
hydrophilic
polar molecules, will dissolve in water
miscible
doesn’t mix with water
immiscible
decreases in
blood pH
acidosis
increases in blood pH
alkalosis
When a substance is attracted to itself
cohesion
attraction between molecules on a liquid’s surface
surface tension
When two different substances are attracted to each other
adhesion
