chapter 2 and 3 vocab

a type of covalent bond in which electrons are shared equally between 2 atoms of similar electronegativity

• polar covalent bond

• hydrogen bond

• nonpolar covalent bond

• hydrolysis

a covalent bond between atoms that differ in electronegativity. The shared electrons are pulled closer to the more electronegative atom, making it slightly negative and the other slightly positive

• bonds

• polar covalent bond

• antiparallel

• nonpolar covalent bond

a molecule(such as water) with an uneven distribution of charges in different regions of the molecule

• polar covalent

• adhesion

• polar molecule

• cohesion

a chemical bond resulting from the attraction between oppositely charged ions

• dehydration synthesis

• non ionic bond

• ionic bond

• monomer

the linking together of like molecules, often by hydrogen bonds

• monomer

• cohesion

• adhesion

• polymer

the clinging of one substance to another, such as water to plant cell walls, by means of hydrogen bonds

• monomer

• cohesion

• adhesion

• polymer

a measure of how difficult it is to stretch or break the surface of a liquid

• antiparallel

• surface tension

• hydrophilic

• hydrophobic

having an affinity for water

• hydrophilic

• hydrophobic

• hydrogen

• hydrolysis

having no affinity for water, tending to coalesce and form droplets in water

• hydrophilic

• hydrophobic

• hydrogen

• hydrolysis

a molecule consisting of many similar or identical monomers linked together by covalent bonds

• cohesion

• monomer

• adhesion

• polymer
