24 views1 pages

Document Summary

Covalent bonds (shared electrons but not necessarily equal) are strong, sturdy, stable, and form more permanent bonds. Non-covalent bonds (not shared electrons) are much weaker, reversible, and do not involve shared electrons. Only 2 types of bonds: hydrogen bonds and ionic bonds/interactions. A hydrogen bond is an interaction between a hydrogen that is partially positively charged and another electronegative atom. Ionic interaction is a positive attracted to a negative atom (in biological systems, the environment affects the bond strength; in water, molecules are weaker) Water: the molecule that supports all of life. All living organisms require water more than any other substance. Most cells are surrounded by water, and cells themselves are about 70-95% water. A solution is a liquid that is homogeneous mixture of substances. A solvent is the dissolving agent of a solution. The solute is the substance that is dissolved. An aqueous solution is one in which water is the solvent.
