All compounds are molecules but not all molecules are compounds
COMPOUNd
Substances made of 2 or more different elements
Ex: CH4 and H2O
Organic compounds contain carbon
An element is a substance that cannot be broken down by chemical means into other
substances
Atomic number is the number at the bottom of the element on the periodic table
An atom is the smallest piece of an element that retains the characteristics of the element
A.P.E M.A.N
Isotope are different forms of the same element that has the same # of protons, but a different #
of neutrons
Electrons start on the inner shell and work there way out
Inert atom- Stable atom/ has an outer electron shell/valence shell that is full
Electronegative have stronger they have a greater reason to pull electrons towards them
Also increases from the bottom to the top of the periodic table
Polar covalent bonds are when the electrons are shared unequally
Hydrogen bond
The bond between the oxydrogen in a single water molecule that is a polar covalent bond
Water is polar
Water is cohesive
Hydrogen and oxygen are shared within water molecules form polar covalent bonds
Water molecules attract other molecules because of the positive and negative charges in the
different parts of the molecule
Hydrophilic means water loving, substances that a hydrophilic are more likely to dissolve in
water because they have full or partial charge areas.
The slight negative charge on oxH is gonna attract the slight negative charge of CL
This increased energy disrupts the hydrogen bonds between water molecules
Kinetic energy decreases and temperature drops less energy is available to break the hydrogen
bonds
Water is cohesive
Cohesion: is the tendency for water molecules to stick to each other. This is due to hydrogen
bonds formed between water molecules
Surface tension
