Liquid water is denser than ice. Hence, Ice floats on top of liquid water. It has a relatively high boiling point. It is a good solvent.

Is hydrogen bonding strongest between molecules of H20 H2S H2Se or H2Te?

Hydrogen fluoride HF has the strongest hydrogen bonding. Water H2O and ammonia NH3 have the next strongest hydrogen bonding.

What is the weakest type of bond and is involved in the bonding of water?

Water molecules are associated by hydrogen bonds but I suppose that these bonds are not the weakest.


Which molecule will not exhibit hydrogen bonding?

FON Remember this as it mean only hydrogen bonded to fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen will exhibit hydrogen bonding H2O ( water ) = hydrogen bonding as hydrogen is bonded to oxygen CO ( carbon monoxide ) = no hydrogen bonding Think electronegative differences.


What property of water allows it to move up through a plant?

hydrogen bonding


Why is methane insoluble but methanol is soluble?

Generally speaking 'like dissolves like' so when you thinking if a molecule can dissolve in a particular solvent, you need to decide what type of bonding that solvent can exhibit and what bonding the molecule in question exhibits. So for example water can exhibit hydrogen bonding. This means for something to be able soluble in water, it too needs to be able to exhibit hydrogen bonding. Methane only contains hydrogen and carbon and thus, will not exhibit hydrogen bonding. However, methanol has carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and therefore, can exhibit hydrogen bonding. As a result, using the 'like dissolve like' approach we can see why methane will be insoluble in water but methanol will be soluble.


Type of bonding water molecules exhibit?

Within the molecule itself, water exhibits ionic bonding. Between the water molecules, there is hydrogen bonding.
