Question 1
1.

A water molecule is polar because ..........

Question 2
2.

The weak and temporary bond between the positive hydrogen side of a water molecule and the negative side of another molecule (maybe water) is called ...

Question 3
3.

The hydrogen bond between the 2 water molecules is an example of _________________, while the hydrogen bond between a water and another molecules (like the sides of the tube shown in the diagram) is an example of _____________

Question 4
4.
  • capillary action
  • surface tension
  • water is a good solvent
  • water moderate temperatures (slows down changes in temperature)
Question 5
5.

This image shows 2 common types of lipids (fats/oil) which do NO dissolve in water (they are hydrophobic!). The black spheres are carbon, white is hydrogen and red is oxygen. Notice both molecules are mostly 3 long chains of carbons and hydrogen only (no oxygen) with a few positive and negative charges at one end (because of the oxygen)

Pick the best explanation for why lipids do NOT dissolve in water.

Question 6
6.
  • Item 1
    salt
  • Item 2
    glucose (a sugar)
  • lipids (fats/oils)
  • Will dissolve in water
  • Will not dissolve in water
Question 7
7.
  • Item 1

  • Item 2

  • ice
  • liquid water
Question 8
8.

1. Explain why water is a polar molecule.
2. Explain what a hydrogen bond is and how water being a polar molecule causes hydrogen bonds.
