chapter 2, 3, 5, 8 Flashcards
1
Q
water
A
- h2o
- polar covalent bond
- partial charges
2
Q
properties of water
A
- cohesion
- adhesion
- surface tension
- high specific heat & heat of vaporization
- less dense
- solubility
3
Q
cohesion
A
-water attracts to itself
4
Q
adhesion
A
- water is attracted to other things
- due to existing charges everywhere
5
Q
surface tension
A
-water molecules are so cohesive they create a film
6
Q
high specific heat and heat of vaporization
A
-due to hydrogen bonding
7
Q
average kinetic heat
A
-how fast molecules move
8
Q
ice
A
- strong and permanent h bonds
- floats due to stabalized hydrogen bonds
- molecules of ice are further apart than of liquid water
- crystal lattice structure
9
Q
hydrophilic vs hydrophobic
A
- likes water
- can dissolve and absorb
- does not like water
- oil and fats
- cell membrane
10
Q
pure water
A
- 2 h2o molecules bond
- creates hydronium (h3o+) and hydroxide (oh-)
- neutral
- pH 7
11
Q
acidic water
A
- releases h-
- adds h3o+ (hydronium) to restore baland
12
Q
basic water
A
- releases h+
- adds oh- (hydroxide) to restore balance
13
Q
buffers
A
- prevents/ resists changes in pH
- carbonic acid h2co3
14
Q
important elements of life
A
- carbon
- hydrogen
- nitrogen
- oxygen
- phosphorus
- sulfur
15
Q
electron configuration
A
-determines number of bonds an atom will form
16
Q
molecular diversity
A
- carbon skeletons can vary in size and length
- hydrocarbons (ch)
17
Q
isomer
A
- compounds with the same amount atoms
- different structures and properties
- structural
- cis trans
- enantiomers
