TermDefinition
adhesion when water molecules attach to other kinds of molecules
capillary action movement of water within the spaces of a porous material due to the forces of adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension
hydrogen bonds the electromagnetic attraction created between a partially positively charged hydrogen atom to a highly electronegative atom
electronegativity tendency of an atom or molecule to draw electrons towards itself
covalent bonds mutual sharing of one or more pairs of electrons between two atoms
ionic bonds chemical bonding that includes a complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another
cohesion when water molecules attach to other water molecules
solute what is being dissolved
solvent the substance that does the dissolving
polar covalent bonds a covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons forming the bonds are unequally distributed
nonpolar covalent bonds type of chemical bond formed when electrons are shared equally between two atoms
ion an atom that has gained or lost electrons
dehydration reaction chemical reaction that involves the loss of water from the reacting molecule or ion (to put together while losing water)

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.
