  2. Polarity of Molecules - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/intermolecular-bonding/polarity-of-molecules

    The molecule as a whole will also be polar. If a molecule has more than one polar bond, the molecule will be polar or nonpolar, depending on how the bonds are arranged. If the polar bonds are arranged symmetrically, the bond dipoles cancel and do not create a molecular dipole. For example, the three bonds in a molecule of BF₃ are polar, but ...

  3. What are some examples of polar molecules? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-some-examples-of-polar-molecules

    Other examples of polar molecules include HF, P Cl3, N H 3. "HF", "PCl"""_3, "NH"""_3 and "H"_2"O" are examples of polar molecules. Water is an example of a polar molecule. To be polar, molecules need to contain polar bonds, AND the arrangement of these bonds must be asymmetrical. Polar bonds arise when two atoms bond together that have ...

  4. What are polar molecule examples? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-polar-molecule-examples

    Polarity demands charge separation.... And thus polar molecules include water, hydrogen halides, ammonia, alcohols, alkyl halides, ethers, and amines...

  5. Dipole-Dipole Interactions - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/intermolecular-bonding/dipole-dipole-interactions

    Why is the boiling point of H 2T e higher than the boiling point of H 2S? A dipole-dipole interaction is an attraction or repulsion between polar molecules. The positive region of one molecule is attracted to the negative region of another and repulsed by the positive region of another molecule. A Hydrogen bond is a dipole-dipole interaction.

  6. Hydrogen Bonds - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/intermolecular-bonding/hydrogen-bonds

    This means the molecules will be soluble in a polar solvent such as water. Some examples of polar molecules which can hydrogen bond are ammonia (#NH_3#) and methanol (#CH_3OH#). The polarity of these molecules indicates that they will dissolve in water. #CO_2# can form hydrogen bonds with water, but its linear shape makes it a nonpolar molecule ...

  7. Intermolecular Bonds - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/intermolecular-bonding/intermolecular-bonds

    Intermolecular bonds are caused by the attractive forces between the negative end of one molecule and the positive end of another. A polar molecule has a positive end and a negative end. When two polar molecules are near each other, they arrange themselves so that the negative and positive ends line up and attract the two molecules together.

  8. Do polar solutes dissolve easily in water? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/do-polar-solutes-dissolve-easily-in-water

    Water, a polar solvent, can dissolve polar solutes easily. Ionic compounds and most polar molecules will dissolve in water. Polar solutes that contain N-H and O-H bonds can hydrogen bond to water. An example of an O-H bond is methanol (CH_3-OH). Sugars contain O-H bonds and dissolve in water. An example of an N-H bond is methyl amine (CH_3-NH_2).

  9. How do polar molecules enter cells? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-polar-molecules-enter-cells

    Polar molecules move across cell membranes by both passive and active transport mechanisms. > Cell membranes consist mostly of nonpolar lipids with various proteins embedded in them. Nonpolar and small polar solutes can diffuse through these nonpolar lipid membranes. Ions and large polar molecules cannot. Some of the proteins in cell membranes have passages or channels made from proteins. The ...

  10. What are dipole-dipole forces? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/what-are-dipole-dipole-forces

    Dipole-dipole forces are the attraction between the positive end of one molecule and the negative end of another. Dipoles form when there is a large difference in electronegativity between two atoms joined by a covalent bond. The atoms share the electrons unequally because the more electronegative atom pulls the shared electrons toward itself. That means that one atom has a partial negative ...

  11. Covalent compounds - Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/chemistry/ionic-bonds-and-formulas/covalent-compounds

    Some common examples are water, #H_2O#, carbon dioxide, #CO_2# ', and hydrogen gas which is diatomic, #H_2#. Covalent compounds can be subdivided into polar and no polar compounds. In water, a polar molecule, the hydrogen electrons are not shared equally with the oxygen atoms; this results in a polar bond.
