Question | Answer |
---|---|
What is the smallest unit of matter that still retains the properties of an element? | atom |
What is associated with the atomic nucleus because of positive and negative charges but is still relatively far from the nucleus? | Electrons in the electron cloud |
Water? | Hydro |
Loving? | philos |
Fearing? | phobos |
A substance that increases the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution | Acid |
The attraction between different kinds of molecules due to hydrogen bonds | Adhesion |
A solution in which water is the solvent | Aqueous solution |
A substance that reduces the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution | Base |
The binding together of like molecules, often by hydrogen bonds | Cohesion |
The property of a liquid whereby the surface becomes cooler during evaporation, owing to a loss of highly kinetic molecules to the gaseous state | Evaporative cooling |
The total amount of kinetic energy due to molecular motion in a body of matter | heat |
The quantity of heat a liquid must absorb for one gram to be converted from the liquid to the gaseous state. Amount of energy needed to turn a liquid into a gas and is relatively high in water due to hydrogen bonds | Heat of vaporization |
A single proton with a charge of plus one (+1). The dissociation of a water molecule leads to the generation of a hydroxide (OH-) and a hydrogen ion (H+) | Hydrogen ion |
Having an affinity for water | Hydrophilic |
Having an aversion to water | Hydrophobic |
A water molecule that has lost a proton | Hydroxide ion |
The energy of motion | Kinetic energy |
The sum of masses of all the atoms in a molecule, sometimes called molecular weight | Molecular mass |
A measure of hydrogen ion concentration of a solution; ranges in value from 0 to 14 | pH |
A substance that is dissolved in a solution | Solute |
A liquid that is a homogenous mixture of two or more substances | Solution |
The dissolving agent of the solution | Solvent |
The amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost of 1 g of a substance to change its temperature by 1°C. how much energy it takes to change the temperature of the liquid and it's relatively high in water because of hydrogen bonds | Specific heat |
A measure of how difficult it is to break the surface of the liquid and is made higher in water due to hydrogen bonds | Surface tension |
A measure of the intensity of heat in degrees | Temperature |
What is made of one atom of oxygen bonded to two hydrogen atoms by polar covalent bonds? This also allows for what to form between water molecules? | Water, hydrogen bonds |
What gives water many unique properties compared to other liquids? | Hydrogen bonding |
Ice, or frozen water, is (blank) dense than liquid water because the (blank blank) in ice are fixed into place and space the water molecules further apart | Less dense, hydrogen bonds |
A homogenous mixture of two or more substances | Solution |
Things dissolved in a solvent | Solutes |
If the solvent is water, it is what? | An aqueous solution |
(Blank) substances are repelled By water and contai nonpolar bonds | Hydrophobic |
(Blank) substances are attracted By water and contain polar bonds or are ionic compounds | Hydrophilic |
When water breaks apart they can break into (blank) and (blank)? | Hydrogen cations (H+) and hydroxide and ions (OH-) |
The measure of how many H+ are in substances | ph |
H+ are (blank) in acids and (blank) in bases | High, low |
A pH of seven is? | Neutral |
you can figure out the pH, using the formula: | pH = -log[H+] |
formula for pH | [H+] x [OH-] = 1 x 10-14 |
The attraction of like molecules to each other | Cohesion |
The cohesive force is maintained by the transient (blank blank) between adjacent molecules that contain internal polar covalent bonds | Hydrogen bonds |
The attraction of one type of molecule to another type | Adhesion |
In the transport vessels of a plant, ((blank) helps water molecules travel from the roots to the leaves by a chain of water molecules, each hydrogen bonded to water molecules enables the water to be pulled upwards against the pool of gravity | Cohesion |
(Blank) forces between the water molecules and other type of molecules in the vessel walls contain polar covalent bonds and therefore can hydrogen bond with the water molecules | Adhesive |
Water has a (blank) specific heat compared to other liquids so that its temperature changes less dramatically with adding or taking away heat | High |
Waters resistance to changing temperature is because (blank blank) between water molecules must be broken first by the added heat before any of that he can be used for a change in temperature | Hydrogen bonds |
Coastal areas generally have (blank) climates then inland areas due to the stabilizing effect of water on the air temperatures | Milder |
Measure of how hard it is to break the surface of the fluid | Surface tension |
Water tends to have a (Blank) amount of surface tension compared to other liquids | Higher |
The (blank blank) between water molecules gives a stability to the surface | Hydrogen bonds |
When the temperature of water is lowered the hydrogen bonds between water molecules become what? | Fixed into place, spacing the water molecules further apart. This makes ice less dense than liquid |
Water has a relatively (blank) heat of vaporization due to the need of molecules of water to overcome the attraction of the hydrogen bonds between each other | High |
a solution is a homogenous mixture of what? | Solute and solvent |
Hydrophobic substances contain what type of bonds that allow them to be repelled by water? | Nonpolar covalent bonds |
Hydrophilic substances are attracted to water and contain what type of bonds? | Either polar covalent or ionic bonds |
Hydrogen bonds have to be between what types of molecules? | Polar |
The attraction of water to neighboring water is an example of what? | Cohesion |
Water-based blood is attracted to glass capillaries which is caused by the adhesion of polar water to polar glass. This is called what? | Capillary action |
What is it called when hydrogen bonds between water molecules break? | Evaporation |
Water is a versatile solvent due to its what? | Polarity |
Water can form what type of solution? | Aqueous |
Regions of polar water molecules can interact with (blank) compounds called (blank) and dissolve them | Ionic, solutes |
Dissociation of water means that water can dissociate into (blank) and (blank)? | Hydrogen and hydroxide |
