2 Formative Assessment
1. How do polar molecules form hydrogen bonds?

Opposite charges of polar molecules can interact to form hydrogen bonds, such as a slightly
positive hydrogen atom and a slightly negative atom, often oxygen or nitrogen.
2. What determines whether a compound will dissolve in water?

It is determined by whether the compound is nonpolar or polar. Water is a polar compound, so

only polar compound will dissolve in water.

3. Make a chart that compares acids and bases. CRITICAL THINKING

Figure 2.5 in the book is clear enough.

4. Compare and Contrast//How do polar molecules differ from nonpolar molecules? How does this
difference affect their interactions?

Compared to polar molecules, nonpolar molecules share electrons more equally. The reason for that is
polar molecules have a region with a slight positive charge and a region with a slight negative charge.

5. Connect// Describe an example of cohesion or adhesion that you might observe during your daily life.

Cohesion: when water forms beads.

Adhesion: when someone dropped a cup of water on a carpet.
