Biology 2-2 Properties of Water nAME: _____________________ pERIOD: ___________________ The Water Molecule dATE: _____________________ The Water Molecule Like all_________________, a water molecule is _______________. The Water Molecule Why are water molecules _______________? The Water Molecule Polarity an _______________ atom, with ____ protons in its nucleus, has a much stronger attraction for ___________________ than does the hydrogen atom with a single _________________. 1 Thus, there is a greater ___________________ of finding the shared __________________ near the oxygen atom rather than near the _____________________ atom. The Water Molecule As a result, the _____________ end of the molecule has a slight _________________ charge and the ___________________ end has a slight ____________________ charge. A _______________ molecule is _______________ because there is an uneven distribution of _________________ between the oxygen and hydrogen _____________. The Water Molecule The Water Molecule Hydrogen Bonds 2 Because of their partial _________________ and ______________ charges, _____________ molecules can _________________ each other. The Water Molecule The attraction between the __________________ atoms on one ___________________ and the oxygen __________ on another water _________________ is an example of a _________________ bond. __________________ bonds are _________ as ____________ as covalent or ionic bonds. The Water Molecule A single ______________ molecule may be involved in as many as ______________ hydrogen ___________ at a time. Water’s _______________ to form ________________ hydrogen bonds is responsible for many of its ______________ ____________________. The Water Molecule ________________ bonds form between _______________ molecules. 3 The Water Molecule __________________ is an ________________ between molecules of the _____________ substance. Because of __________________ bonding, water is extremely _________________. The Water Molecule Water's _________________ causes molecules on the __________________ of water to be drawn ________________, which is why _____________ of water form ___________ on a smooth surface. _______________ also explains why some _____________ and spiders can walk on a _________________ surface. The Water Molecule 4 ____________________ is an __________________ between molecules of _______________________ substances. The surface of ________________ in a ________________ cylinder dips in the center because ________________ between ____________ molecules and _____________ molecules is stronger than ______________ between _______________ molecules. The Water Molecule __________________ between ______________ and ____________ causes water to ______________ in a narrow tube against the force of __________________. This effect is called __________________ __________________. The Water Molecule __________________ ______________ is one of the _______________ that draw water out of the _______________ of a plant and up into its ______________ and ______________. __________________ holds the column of ________________ together as it rises. Solutions and Suspensions A ___________________ is a material composed of ________ or more elements or compounds that are ____________________ mixed but not _____________________ combined. Solutions and Suspensions Two types of _________________ can be made with _______________ 1. 5 2. Solutions and Suspensions Solutions All the components of a ____________________ are evenly ___________________ throughout the solution. In a salt–water solution, table salt is the ___________________ —the substance that is __________________. Water is the ___________________ —the substance in which the _________________ dissolves. Solutions and Suspensions When a _____________________ of table salt is placed in warm _______________, _________________ and ________________ ions are attracted to the ________________ water molecules. 6 Solutions and Suspensions ______________ break away from the crystal and are __________________ by ________________ molecules. 7 Solutions and Suspensions The ions gradually become dispersed in the water, forming a solution. Solutions and Suspensions Water's _________________ gives it the ability to ______________ both ______________ compounds and other _______________ molecules, such as _________________. 8 _____________ is the greatest _______________ on Earth. Solutions and Suspensions Suspensions Some materials do not _________________ when placed in ______________ but __________________ into pieces so small that they do _______ settle out. Solutions and Suspensions The movement of _____________ molecules keeps the small particles _________________. Such mixtures of _____________ and ____________________ material are known as ____________________. Solutions and Suspensions Some of the most important ___________________ fluids are both ___________________ and ____________________. The ______________ that circulates through your body is mostly _________________, which contains many _________________ compounds. Blood also contains ________________ and other ____________________ particles that remain in _____________________ as the blood moves through the body. 9 Acids, Bases, and pH What are ____________ solutions? What are ____________solutions? Acids, Bases, and pH A _____________ molecule can react to form ____________________ and ____________________________ ions. Water is _____________ because the number of positive ____________________ions (H+) produced is equal to the number of negative _____________________ ions (OH-) produced. Acids, Bases, and pH The pH scale Chemists devised a ________________________ system called the _______ scale to indicate the concentration of _______ ions in solution. The ___________ scale ranges from ____ to ____. Acids, Bases, and pH At a pH of____, the _______________________ of H+ ions and OH- ions is equal. Pure ___________ has a pH of ______. 10 Acids, Bases, and pH Solutions with a pH below ______ are called _______________ because they have more _____ ions than ______ ions. The lower the ______, the greater the______________. Acids, Bases, and pH Solutions with a pH above _______ are called __________ because they have more ______ ions than ______ ions. The higher the ______, the more _____________ the solution. Acids, Bases, and pH Acids An __________ is any compound that forms _____ ions in solution. Acidic ________________ contain ____________ concentrations of H+ ___________than pure water and have pH values __________7. Acids, Bases, and pH Strong ___________tend to have ______ values that range from ___ to ____. The ________________________acid produced by the _________________to help digest food is a ____________ acid. Acids, Bases, and pH 11 Bases A __________ is a compound that produces _______________ions (OH- ions) in solution. ____________, or_________________, solutions contain _____________concentrations of H+ ions than pure water and have _______ values _________7. Acids, Bases, and pH Strong ___________, such as lye, tend to have ____values ranging from ____ to ____. Acids, Bases, and pH Buffers The pH of the fluids within most ___________ in the ___________ body must generally be kept between _____ and _____. If the pH is _________ or __________, it will affect the chemical ___________________ that take place within the cells. Acids, Bases, and pH Controlling ______ is important for maintaining __________________. One of the ways that the body controls pH is through dissolved compounds called ____________. 12 ______________ are weak _________ or bases that can react with _______________ acids or __________to prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH. qUIZ 1.
