What do hydrophobic molecules avoid?
Hydrophobic molecules avoid water. Strictly speaking, they do not attract water, and therefore water will avoid them, since it is more attracted to other molecules or to itself.
What are water-fearing molecules called?
Water-fearing molecules are called hydrophobic molecules. These molecules do not interact or mix well with water due to their nonpolar nature.
The ability of water to form drops is an example of what?
Water molecules holding on to other water molecules is called cohesion.
The combined force of attraction among water molecules and with the molecules of surrounding materials is called?
The combined force of attraction among water molecules and with the molecules of surrounding materials is called adhesion.
What is the similarities of hydrophillic and hydrophobic?
it is the opposite. Hydrophobic is water hating, hydrophilic is water loving. ie, hydrophobic substances avoid water, hydrophilic are attracted
Harmful molecules in water are called?
Pollutants
When water molecules are moving closer together in the air is called?
When water molecules are moving closer together in the air, it is called condensation. This process occurs when the water vapor in the air loses heat, causing the molecules to slow down and come together to form liquid water droplets.
What is it called when water water molecules move apart and escape in the form of water vapor?
Evaporization is when water is released in the form of a molecules in the air.
What name is given to the bond between water molecules?
The bond between water molecules is called the hydrogen bond.
Are molecules that are farthest apart from each other called water vapor?
No, molecules that are farthest apart from each other are not called water vapor. Water vapor refers specifically to the gaseous form of water molecules. Molecules that are far apart from each other can simply be part of a gas phase.
When water molecules disappear into the air it is called what?
That's called evaporation.
What is it called when water molecules are disappearing into the air?
That's called evaporation.
