What special abilities do water molecules have because they are polar?

Because water molecules are polar, they exhibit both cohesion adhesive. They are cohesive because they stick to other water molecules, and adhesive because they also stick to other surfaces.

Which of these molecules is polar?
Which of these molecules is polar
Is BrF5 polar or non-polar?
BrF5 is polar. It is polar because it contains molecules that are polar, and it is able to have dipole moments.
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
Is it true thatMolecules that have distinct poles are called polar molecules?
false. they are non polar molecules, not to be confused with polar molecules. non polar molecules lack regions of electrical charge. it mostly has hydrogen and carbon atoms. an example of non polar molecules are fats and waxes.
How do polar and non-polar bonds interact with each other?
Polar molecules reacts with polar molecules and non-polar molecules react with non-polar molecules.
What type of molecules dissolves in water polar or nonpolar?
Polar molecules dissolve in water. The reason why polar molecules dissolve in water, but not non-polar molecules is because non-polar molecules can't form hydrogen bonds.
Why do charged and polar molecules dissolve in aqueous solutions?
Because water is polar, and polar solvants will dissolve polar solutes. :)
Do all polar molecules contain polar covalent bonds?
The answer is yes, because molecules get polarity after forming polar covlent bond,no such polar molecules can exist which do not contain polar covalent bond. Am I right?
If water has no net charge explain why it attracts polar molecules and repels non-polar molecules?
Water attracts polar molecules and repels non-polar molecules because water has polar molecules. Water does have a net dipole though it doesn't have net charge.
Lipis are what molecules because they have no negative and positive molecules?
Polar?
Gasoline is not solubal in water because gasoline is?
Gasoline is hydrophobic because the molecules are non-polar. Only polar molecules are soluble in water.
What polar molecules are attracted to water?
Hydrophobic molecules do not dissolve in water. This is because water is hydrophilic. Another way to say this is that lipids, which are nonpolar, cannot dissolve in water, which in polar.
Why do polar bers have small ears?
Polar bears have small ears because they are special.:)Polar bears have small ears because they are special.:)
Do polar molecules have ionic bonds?
Polar molecules typically do not conduct electricity as well as ionic molecules. This is because charges in polar molecules due to unequal sharing of electrons are not as strong as the charges on ions
Are non-polar molecules more attracted to other non-polar molecules or polar molecules?
Non-polar molecules are more attracted to other non-polar molecules.
What types of molecules have the strongest intermoleculer forces?
The strongest intermolecular forces exist between polar molecules, because the polar molecules act as tiny dipoles.
Which of these molecules is polar?
Which of these molecules is polar
