What is the phenomenon that that occurs when individual molecules are so strongly attracted to each other that they tend to stay together, even when exposed to tension.
|
COHENSION
|
|
Electrolysis uses
water or electricity to break down a molecule into its constutuent elements(or smaller units) |
ELECTRICITY
|
|
What type of water
hard or soft has certain dissolved ions in it, mainly calcium ions. |
HARD
|
|
A substance that is dissolved in a solvent is called a ________________.
|
SOLUTE
|
|
The weak bond between the hydrogen on one water molecule and the ozygen on another is called a _________
bond. |
HYDROGEN
|
|
In the chemical formula for calcium carbonate(CaCO3), what does the subscript 3 stand for?
|
3 OXYGEN ATOMS
|
|
What kind of molecules have no net electrical charges?
Polar or nonpolar? |
NONPOLAR
|
|
What kind of molecule has slight positive and negative charges due to an imbalancein the way electrons are shared?
|
POLAR
|
|
How many total atoms are in vinegar? C2H4O
|
SEVEN
|
|
In experiment 4.5, the needle floated ont he water due to effect of cohesion between water molecules. This effect is commonly called surface_____________.
|
TENSION
|
|
What is the chemical formula for water?
|
H2O
|
|
Water is a liquid at room temperature when all other chemically similar substances are gases at room temperature. What make this happen?
|
HYDROGEN BONDING keeps the water molecules close together.
|
|
How many atoms are in one molecule of CO2?
|
THREE
|
|
How many atoms are in one molecule of CO
|
Two REMEMBER each capital lettersignifies an atom, and if there is no subscript, that means there is only one atom.
|
|
Suppose you wree able to count the molecule of a substance. Which would have more molecules, 1 liter of liquid vegetable oil or liter of frozen vegetable oil? Explain
|
frozen oil- because unlike water, the vegetable oil, when frozen,it's molecules move closer together due to a decreased molecule motion. Remember water is the exception to this rule and the frozen molecules are further a part.
|
|
In experiment 4.3,which of the liquids did the salt and sugar NOT dissolve in...oil or water?
|
Vegetable oil, because it is nonpolar. Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents due to attraction between the molecules.
|
|
If a substance dissolves in water, will it dissolve in vegetable oil, a nonpolar substance?
|
It will not dissolve in vegetable oil because if it dissolves in water it is either ionic or polar.
|
|
A molecule is comprised or made up of atoms that all pull on electrons with the same strenght. Will this molecule be polar or nonpolar? Why?
|
Nonpolar. Equal sharing of electorns between atoms of a molecule does not allow the formation of a negative or positive pole in the molecule.
|
|
The principal component of gasoline is octane, whose molecules are composed of eight carbon atoms(C) and eighteen hydrogen atoms(H). What is the chemical formula for octane?
|
C8H18
