How does a gecko stick to the surface of a wall? • Electrons in covalent bonds are equally shared. • Rapid movement of electrons can still create tiny positive or negative charges.
The Answer… • Geckos can defy gravity. • Thousands of tiny hair-like projections are divided into many fibers. • A gecko’s foot can come in contact with an extremely large surface of the wall at a molecular level. Van der Waals Forces are slight attractions between the oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules.
Water Often forms Mixtures • a material composed of two or more elements or compounds that are physically mixed together but not chemically combined • Sugar and sand • Earth’s atmosphere is a mixture of gases • slight charges of a water molecule make them good at forming mixtures
Two Important Water Mixtures • solution: a homogeneous mixture in which one substance is dissolved in another • solvent: substance that does the dissolving • solute: the substance that is dissolved • water is the greatest solvent because of its charges • suspension: mixture containing nondissolved particles distributed within a solid, liquid, or gas
Acids and Bases • acids: compounds that have higher concentrations of H+ ions than pure water. • Form H+ ions in a solution • Have a pH lower than 7 • HCl (Hydrochloric Acid) is a strong acid • bases: compounds that have lower concentrations of H+ ions than pure water. • Form OH- ions in solution • Have a pH higher than 7 • Bleach is a strong base Buffers: weak acids or bases that prevent sharp changes in pH levels to help maintain homeostasis.
The pH Scale • pH scale: a measurement system that indicates the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution. • neutralization reaction: reaction that occurs when H+ ions of a strong acid react with the OH- ions of a strong base • form water and a salt.
Question of the Day • A compound that produces H+ ions in solutions is called a • A. Salt • B. Base • C. Polymer • D. Acid
