What is the type of attraction that holds two water molecules together?
The type of attraction that holds two water molecules together is an electrostatic attraction, known as the hydrogen bond.
What is a relatively weak bond between polar molecules?
A polar molecule is positive on one end and negative on the opposite end. A hydrogen bond is a special attraction between polar molecules, a weak bond.
Why does drop of water appear like pearl?
A drop of water appears like a pearl due to the cohesive forces among its molecules. Forces of attraction between water molecules and other molecules called adhesive forces.
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 is the importance of water in cells?
most cells and tissues contain large amounts of water- up to 95% in some, with an average of 70-80% water throughout all organisms. molecules must dissolve in water in order to move easily in and between living cells. polar molecules, such as sugar, and ions such as Na+, dissolve in water because of an electric attraction between them and the water molecules. non-polar molecules, such as fats and oils, do not dissolve in water.
In water can you say the attraction between H2 and Ois Adhesion and H2O and H2O is Cohesion?
No, in water, the attraction between H2 and O is a covalent bond that forms the water molecule. Adhesion refers to the attraction between different molecules, while cohesion refers to the attraction between the same molecules. In water, the attraction between H2O molecules is cohesion, and the attraction between water molecules and other substances is adhesion.
What are the weak chemical attraction between water molecules?
Water molecules form hydrogen bonds to other water molecules.
What is the cause of the attraction between molecules of water?
Polar water molecules are associated by hydrogen bonds.
How does the strength of the attraction between water molecules and sodium and chloride ions compare with the strength of the attraction between the sodium ions and chloride ions?
Attraction between water molecules and sodium and chloride ions OSS less than the attraction between sodium ions and chloride ions.
What causes the attraction between water molecules causes?
cohesion is the answer
Why do sucrose molecules associate with water?
Due to Hydrogen bonding(Intermolecular attraction between Sucrose and water molecules)
Which property allows water to stick to glass?
This is called adherence. It is the force of attraction between the water molecules and the glass molecules.
Is a hydrogen bond the strongest that formed between molecules?
Actually it is a weak bond like the attraction between water molecules.
Whats the difference between adhesion and cohesion?
Adhesion is the attraction between two molecules of different substances.cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same substances.
What bonds are on the weak side of chemical attraction between water molecules?
hydrogen
What are the primary forces of attraction between water molecules in H2O?
Hydrogen bonds
What is the definition of cohesion force?
Cohesive force is the force of attraction between molecules of the same kind or of the same substance. Eg. cohesive force of attraction exists between water molecules
