Properties of Water and pH Guided Notes 15
Water expands when it freezes, thus ice is less dense than liquid water, which is why ice floats on the surface of lakes and rivers
The Water Molecule • A molecule in which the charges are unevenly distributed is called a polar molecule • A water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms
The Water Molecule • The negative pole is near the oxygen atom and the positive pole is between the hydrogen atoms
Hydrogen Bonds • Because of their partial positive and negative charges, polar molecules such as water can attract each other • The attraction between the hydrogen atom on one water molecule and the oxygen atom on another water molecule is an example of a hydrogen bond
Hydrogen Bonds • Hydrogen bonds are not as strong as covalent or ionic bonds, but water’s ability to form multiple hydrogen bonds is responsible for many of its special properties • A single water molecule may be involved in as many as four hydrogen bonds at the same
Properties of Water • Cohesion-an attraction between molecules of the same substance • Cohesion is why drops of water form beads on a smooth surface and why some insects and spiders can walk on a pond’s surface.
Properties of Water • Adhesion-attraction between molecules of different substances • Adhesion is responsible for the way water dips in a graduated cylinder
Solutions and Suspension • Mixture-a material composed of two or more elements or compounds that are physically mixed together but not chemically combined • Two types of mixtures include solutions and suspensions
Solutions and Suspension • Solution-all the components are evenly distributed throughout the solution • Solute-the substance that is dissolved • Solvent-that substance in which the solute dissolves +
Solutions and Suspension • Suspension-mixtures of water and undissolved material • Example: blood
pH H2O H+ + OH- Water hydrogen ion + hydroxide ion Every solution has a mixture of OH- and H+ ions. The solution is classified as an acid or a base depending on how much of each ion is present.
pH • pH scale-indicates the concentration of H+ ions in solution • pH scale = 0-14 • 0-7 H+ > OH- • 7H+ = OH- • 7-14 H+ < OH-
pH • Acids • Taste sour • pH = 0-7 • The lower the pH, the stronger the acid • Examples: vinegar, tea, soda, orange juice, lemon juice
pH • Bases • Feel slippery • pH = 7-14 • The higher the pH, the stronger the base • Examples: detergent, soap, ammonia, baking soda
Buffers • Buffers-weak acids or bases that can react with strong acids or bases to prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH • The pH of fluids within most cells in the human body must generally be kept between 6.5 and 7.5 • If the pH is lower or higher, it will affect the chemical reactions • Therefore buffers are used to control pH, which is important for maintaining homeostasis
Testing pH: Indicators • Litmus paper • Changes color based on pH of sample • Red litmus paper • Turns red in presence of an acid • Turns blue in presence of a base • Blue litmus paper • Turns red in presence of an acid • Turns blue in presence of a base • If a substance turns the red paper red and the blue paper blue, it is NEUTRAL!
pH Lab • Use one red and one blue litmus paper at each station. Tear each into 3 strips- one for each sample. • Use the tweezers to dip the litmus paper into the unidentified solutions. • Place your trash on the paper plates. • Rotate among the 6 stations with your group. • Wait for time to be called before moving on to the next station. • Only talk to your group. • Keep your goggles on at all times. • No horseplay.
Complete the questions about the lab on the back of the paper before you leave.
