Front 1

Polarity-

Back 1

a molecule in which charges are unevenly distributed.

Front 2

Adhesion-

Back 2

is an attraction between molecules of different substances.

Front 3

Cohesion-

Back 3

is an attraction between molecules of the same substances.

Front 4

Hydrogen Bond-

Back 4

are not as strong as covalent or ionic bonds.

Front 5

Solution-

Back 5

ions gradually become dispersed in the water, forming a type of mixture.

Front 6

Buffer-

Back 6

are weak acids or bases that can react with strong acids or bases to prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH.

Front 7

Acid-

Back 7

is any compound that forms H+ ions solution.

Front 8

Base-

Back 8

is a compound that produces hydroxide ions in solution.
