Chemistry of Life

QuestionAnswer
Non-Polar Covalent degree of equal electron sharing Evenly shared
Polar Covalent degree of equal electron sharing Unevenly shared
Ionic Bonds degree of equal electron sharing Complete Transfer
Hydrogen Bonds degree of equal electron sharing No transfer
Be able to describe or identify how the electronegativity of oxygen produces a partial charge differential (polarity) across the water molecule part 1 Due to the higher electronegativity of oxygen electrons are pulled more towards the oxygen atom than towards the hydrogen atom in the water molecule. Between different molecules of h2o due to presence of a slight+charge over H & a slight-charge over O...
Be able to identify how the polarity leads to hydrogen bonding and cohesiveness The dipole interaction water has forms hydrogen bonds. Positive side of one molecule is attracted to the positive side of another. The high surface tension caused between hydrogen bonds creates cohesion, attaching to itself.
Be able to identify how polarity of water affects water's ability as a solvent Water is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good solvent. And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.
Be able to identify how hydrogen bonding leads to waters resistance to vaporization Water is very resistant to changes in its KE (temperature) due to restraints of hydrogen bonds. More energy is needed to break it, meaning much more heat=vaporization of water needs a lot of energy to be complet
Be able to describe or identify how the electronegativity of oxygen produces a partial charge differential (polarity) across the water molecule part 2 These 2 parts of different molecules get attracted to each other leading to H bond.The attraction between the opposite poles of different h2o molecules leads to cohesiveness.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
