Q

Is being highly electronegative the same as having a negative charge?

A

No, being electronegative means you want the electron badly (so usually you would attract them with a positive charge; opposites attract)

Q

Is water polar?

A

Yes water is polar. Caused by shape and unequal sharing of electrons. Hydrogen side is more positively charged and the oxygen side is more negatively charged.

Q

Behavior of electrons in hydrogen bonds.

A

electrons are shared, the positive charge attracts the negative charge however, “O” has a greater pull

Q

You need to find the %change in mass of an object (final mass – initial mass / initial mass)*100%. What type of uncertainty should be reported with this?

A

Uncertainty of the tool used (i.e. Scale). If there are several uncertainties meaning different tools were used, then you add both uncertainties.

Q

A measurement reads 10.1 cm. How many sig figs? What is the uncertainty digit? Report the absolute uncertainty

A

3 sig figs.

Uncertainty digit: 1 after the decimal (tenths place)

0.1 / 2 = +/- 0.05 cm

Q

(10.0 cm +/- 0.5cm ) x (10.0 cm +/- 0.5 cm) =

%U = (abs u/ measurement) *100%

A

% U = (0.5cm / 10.0cm) * 100 = 5%

%U = (0.5cm / 10.0cm) *100 =5%

Sum of % U’s -> 5% +5% = 10%

Times measurements -> 10.0cm * 10.0cm = 100.0 cm

Answer: 100.0 cm +/- 10%

Q

Is Diatomic Oxygen (O2) polar? Why or why not?

A

No, O2 is nonpolar, it has no dipole moment. Both oxygens are negatively charged (equal electronegativity) and thus share the electrons.

Q

Hypotonic, Hypertonic, Isotonic (Along with Plant cell vs Animal cell)

A

Hypo: lots of water, animal cell is lysed, plant cell turgid

Iso: means “same”, Animal cell is normal, plant cell is flaccid

Hyper: not a lot of water, animal cell shriveled, plant cell plasmolyzed

17
Q

Properties of water

A

Cohesion & Adhesion

Surface Tension

Thermal properties

Expansion when frozen

Solvent Properties

18
Q

Adhesion vs. Cohesion

A

Adhesion- 2 different molecules that are attracted to each other

Cohesion- like molecules attracted to each other

19
Q

Evaporative Cooling

A

As the top layer of the liquid evaporates it takes the kinetic energy is absorbed with it and cools the lower layers

20
Q

Specific Heat

A

How much heat it takes to make 1g of a substance to change 1 degree (Celsius obvi) (change can be positive or neg)

21
Q

Talk abt Capillary action

A

water moving through a porous material due to cohesion, adhesion, and surface tension
