water/acids/buffers
lesson A section 1.2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| molecules that dissociate in water and release hydrogen ions (H+) have a pH level of less than 7. | Acids |
| molecules that either release hydroxide ions (OH) or take up hydrogen ions (H+). Have a pH level of more than 7. | Bases |
| compound or combination of compounds,that keeps the pH of a solution within its normal limits. Resist changes in pH because of their ability to take up excess hydroxide ions (OH) or hydrogen ions (H+) | Buffer |
| example of a buffer in the blood. | Hemoglobin |
| oppositely charged poles attract nearby water molecules and create weak bonds called ___. Each water molecule can form up to four hydrogen bonds with neighboring moleculesone on each hydrogen atom and two on the oxygen atom. | Hydrogen Bonding |
| When molecules WILL dissolve in water. | Hydrophilic |
| When Molecules will NOT dissolve in water. | Hydrophobic |
| Lubricant | Water |
| ranges from 0 to 14 and is used to describe the relative acidity or alkalinity of solutions. 7 means neutral, less than 7 is acidic, and more than 7 is basic. | pH |
| positive pole and a negative pole. hydrogen bonds in water attract water molecules to each other, causing them to hold on to each other. results in hydrogen bonding | Polarity |
| Solvent | Water |
| Temperature Regulator | Water |
