Hydrogen Bonds:Reason for Water’s Unique Properties
• Bonds between a hydrogen (H) atom and usually a nitrogen (N), oxygen (O) or fluorine (F).
• Individually, weak bonds, but can be strong in large numbers.

Okay, properties recap…
![Page 6: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cohesion on a Penny
• Cohesion - attraction of water to itself – Because of H-bonds – Makes a round droplet (surface tension)
![Page 7: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Surface Tension - Paperclip
• Surface tension - an example of cohesion.• Reason for round droplets and “film” on the surface.• Water molecules at the surface do not have other
water molecules on all sides of them.– Making them bond more strongly to those around them at
the surface!
![Page 8: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Can you break surface tension?
• You can…with soap!
Detergent on a Penny
Pepper, Water, and Soap
![Page 9: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Soap is a Surfactant(Surface Active Agent)
• Surfactants act to reduce surface tension– Gets between water molecules at the surface
• Reduces cohesion of water molecules

Adhesion
• Adhesion is the attraction of water to a different substance.
• A drop of water is flatter on glass than on wax paper. – Why?
![Page 11: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Strong Adhesion - Meniscus
• Water’s adhesion to glass is stronger than its cohesion to itself. – Creating the concave
meniscus!
• Mercury’s cohesion to itself is stronger than its adhesion to glass!– Creating the convex
meniscus!
![Page 12: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Water Drop Shapes
• More round the drop, the stronger the H-bonds in the drop of water.
• Round drop because water has stronger cohesion to itself than adhesion to wax paper.
• Flatter droplet because water has stronger adhesion to glass than cohesion to itself.– Pulled down by glass

On wax paper On glass
![Page 14: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Polar is attracted to Polar
• Water (Polar) has no adhesion to the wax (nonpolar) paper. It would roll right off.
• Water has more adhesion to a glass (polar) plate.

Capillary Action – Water Climbs Thin Tubes
• The small spaces in the paper towel adhere to the water, allowing it to climb up.
• The water climbs by cohering to itself, pulling water up as it climbs.

Likes Dissolves LikePolar dissolves polar; not nonpolar
• Water, being polar, can dissolve polar substances. – Ionic compounds, like salt, are very polar
• Vegetable oil is nonpolar – it cannot dissolve polar substances like salt
![Page 17: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Oil is Hydrophobic(afraid of water)
• Oil (nonpolar) and water (polar) do not mix – H-bonding only occurs in polar substances
Oil is on topNon-polar
Water is on bottom
Polar

Dissolving
• A solvent surrounds the molecules of a solute to break it up and make a solution.
![Page 19: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Oil Spills
a. dead sea life
• b. human life ills
• c. cost of clean-up
![Page 20: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Oil spills – the key is dissolving or physically removing oil from water
![Page 21: Water Properties Lab. First, a bit of chemistry…](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56649eda5503460f94be908d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Getting rid of oil on water
• Detergent breaks up the oil into very small droplets.
Booms
Burn Off
Hi-pressure water

Amphipathic Molecules(bipolar)
• Molecules have (hydrophobic) nonpolar end and to attract oil structure.
• Also have a region that is polar (hydrophilic) to attract water to wash everything away.
Like detergent.
