What bonds are found inside a water molecule between hydrogen and oxygen?
proton bond
Why are Adjacent water molecules connected by?
Its a weaker bond than covalent or ionic bonding. Its call Hydrogen Bonding. Do to the configuration of H20 positive and negative charges occur on the molecule. So specific areas such as the oxygen(w/ a slight negative charge) will attract to a hydrogen(w/ a slight positive charge) on a different H20 molecule. You can observer this phenomenon by observing that water has a surface tension.
What type of bonds holds the DNA bases together and are they strong or weak bonds?
Hydrogen bonds. They are weak individually, but enough of them have some strength ( water, for instance ) through the are not strong enough to impede the splitting of the DNA molecule when a replicative process, for instance, needs preforming.
Describe the bonding in a water molecule?
A water (H2O) molecule is held together by covalent bonds. Since oxygen has a higer electronegativity than hydrogen, the bonding electron pairs tend towards the oxygen atom, making the oxygen atom a slight negative pole and the hydrogen atoms positive poles. With the additional V shape of the molecule that comes from oxygen's free electron pairs, the slightly polar bonds make the molecule a dipole with the negative pole on oxygen's side and the positive pole in the center between the hydrogen atoms. (This polarity is why a stream of water can be manipulated with a magnet.) The H2O molecule does not conduct electricity as there are no delocalised electrons.
Does a hydrolysis reaction involve the loss of water?
There are multiple processes which can result in the formation of a water molecule. One example is the neutralization of an acid and a base which forms salt and water (e.g. HCl + NaOH ---> H2O +NaCl). In those types of reactions a water molecule is formed when a proton (aka an H+ cation) bonds with a hydroxide anion. There are several other water forming reactions. Another would be the dehydration synthesis of two monosaccharides.
Are water molecules capable of forming hydrogen bonds?
Yes Yes
What is the anomalous behavior of water?
Water is a polar molecule forming many intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
What is a type of molecule that interact with water by dissolving in water and or forming hydrogen bonds with water molecules?
hydrophilic
How are ammonia glucose and water the same?
They are all molecules capable of forming hydrogen bonds.
Why does glucose dissolves in water?
Because glucose has many -OH groups, which are capable of forming hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
What are there bonds in a water molecule?
There are two covalent bonds present in a water molecule.
What type of bonds form within a water molecule?
Within a water molecule is covalent bonds. between water molecules are hydrogen bonds.
Weak bonds forming a bridge between water molecules are called?
Adjacent water molecules are connected by the electrical attraction between the oxygen of one water molecule and the hydrogen of another water molecule. This type of bonding is called hydrogen bonding.
When two water molecules react what do they create?
Two water molecules can react to from hydrogen bonds. If one water molecule acts as an acid and donates a proton to another water molecule then hydronium ions an hydroxyl ions can be formed as well.
What is the difference between water molecules and the bond within the water molecule?
The water molecule is H2O; the intermolecular bonds are hydrogen bonds.
What types of bonds does a water molecule have?
One molecule of water (H-O-H) contains two ionic bonds.
Each water molecule is joined to?
Each water molecule forms multiple hydrogen bonds with neighboring water molecules. These bonds are transient and easily and quickly shift among molecules.
