What is the attractive force between water molecules known as?
This is an intermolecular attraction of water molecules, associated by hydrogen bonds.
What electron behavior in compounds are found in hydrogen?
Hydrogen has the electron configuration of 1s1 meaning that Hydrogen has only one electron. Because of this, Hydrogen is a moderately reactive substance and behaves atypically both in intermolecular and atomic bonding. The most notable behaviour of Hydrogen is Hydrogen bonding. When hydrogen is bonded to a highly electronegative element, such as Fluorine in HF, the electron density is pulled away from the weak hydrogen atom, leaving the hydrogen almost completely deprived of electrons and a δ+ charge. This induces nearby atoms in other molecules to share their lone pair electrons with the hydrogen, effectively producing a bond similar to a covalent bond, however between molecules. Hydrogen bonding is the strongest intermolecular force and is present in compounds such as water, where the Hδ+ Effectively 'bonds' with the lone pairs of the oxygen atoms in neighbouring molecules, which is why water and ice show unusual properties.
What is the most important role of hydrogen bonding between water molecules?
The molecules of water are held together by hydrogen bonding between molecules.These are electrostatic bonds (attraction forces between opposite charges) that hydrogen makes with the oxygen of neighbouring molecules. Hydrogen, when bonded to oxygen to form water molecules, is slightly positive and the oxygen in the water molecule is slightly negative. Hydrogen gets attracted to the neighbouring slightly negative oxygen atoms.This is great for life on Earth because small molecules the size of water tend to be gases but water is a liquid. It is a liquid due to the hydrogen bonding between molecules.
Which statement best describes the molecules made of carbon hydrogen?
Molecules made of carbon and hydrogen are various and diffuse. The best description is that they are hydrocarbons and they burn well.
Which bond type is formed between two polar molecules that contain hydrogen?
a hydrogen bond
How many atoms are in five molecules of hydrogen?
ten as each hydrogen molecules contains two atoms.
What molecules are found in carbohydrates?
contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen
How many molecules contains 0.5L of c2h6o and how many hydrogen atoms?
The answer is 51,568.10 ex.23 molecules and 309,408.10 ex. 23 hydrogen atoms.
Three properties of stars?
-Nuclear fusion -contains hydrogen -emits a light
Why do water and hydrogen peroxide have the same chemical and physical properties?
They both are made of hydrogen and oxygen. Has 2 H bonds among molecules. They have a few different properties too.
How does the composition of a mixture of hydrogen any oxygen differ from the compound containing hydrogen and oxygen?
A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen would consist of separate H2 and O2 molecules. The hydrogen and oxygen would retain their own properties. The most common compound of hydrogen and oxygen is water. In it the two elements are combined into molecules of H2O, which has its own set of properties distinct from those of hydrogen or oxygen.

How the interactions of water at the molecular level enable it to possess different properties?
These properties are due to the association of water molecules by hydrogen bonds.
What is the cohesive properties of the water?
This property due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules is the cause of the water molecules sticking.
Why one mole of hydrogen molecules and one mole of hydrogen atoms have different masses?
Because each hydrogen molecule contains 2 hydrogen atoms!
What does crude oil contain?
Crude oil contains a mixture of hydrocarbons molecules
How many hydrogen atoms are in 5 molecules of isopropyl alcohol?
Each molecule of isopropyl alcohol contains 7 hydrogen atoms. ln 5 molecules of isopropyl alcohol there would be 35 hydrogen atoms.
