Solubilites of some gases in Water: Polar vs. NON polar solvents:

"Solubility = Like dissolves like" POLARITY = has electronegative atoms partial pos and neg charge oxygen, nitrogen, flourine) YOU can INTERACT with water. Nonpolar solvents/molecules have NO PARTIAL positive and NO Partial Negative charge, so they CAN NOT interact with WATER!!!

#2 TYPE of NONCOVALENT INTERMOLECULAR FORCE is __________

#2 TYPE of NONCOVALENT INTERMOLECULAR FORCE is IONIC INTERACTIONS! 1) Ionic interaction = noncovalent = interactions between ion CHARGES. (atom has positive charge and other atom has negative charge). ex: Na+Cl- = ionic interaction between charged polar molecules

#3 Type of NONCOVALENT INTERACTION = ______

#3 Type of NONCOVALENT INTERACTION between 2 molecules = VAN DER WAALS INTERACTIONS 1) EVERY MOLECULE has WEAK Van Der Waals Forces!!! 2) VAN DER WAALS interactions are WEAK forces and have 2 components: A) ATTRACTIVE FORCE = LONDON DISPERSION FORCE, which depends on the polarizability AND B) REPULSIVE FORCE/STERIC REPULSION, which depends on the SIZE of the atoms! ***ALWAYS CHOOSE VAN DER WAALS FORCES on TEST!!! 3) Every molecule has an electron cloud with some type of attraction forces. 4) Dipole Moment occurs where some electrons move to one side, and partial pos and partial negative with some attractive forces. 5) MOST electron clouds have a certain size. If electron clouds are TOO BIG = THEY BEGIN to REPEL each other! **REPULSIVE FORCE=STERIC REPULSION, depends on the size of the atoms 6) **At short distances, REPULSION FORCES dominates between 2 atoms!!!!* 7) **When 2 atoms are far away at LONGEr distances, ATTRACTION forces dominant (typically 0.4-0.7nm) 8) **THERE is a MINIMUM ENERGY DISTANCE that molecules are allowed to see each other = Van Der Waals contact distance**** 9) HYDROGEN BOND the minimum energy distance = Van Der Waals= that molecules are allowed to see each other is 2.8 = short distance

***ON TEST: Thinking of your body, why is it favorable that HYDROGEN bonds are weaker and more easy to break than covalent bonds? Why would you want hydrogen bonds in your body vs. covalent bonds?

***ON TEST: Thinking of your body, why is it favorable that HYDROGEN bonds are weaker and more easy to break than covalent bonds? Why would you want hydrogen bonds in your body vs. covalent bonds? = Processes that occur in your body occur very quickly, things have to bind/unbind QUICKLY. SO WEAK NONCOVALENT hydrogen bonds are more favorable because they can break/form easily.

***The reason why molecules break apart, or form the 3D structure that they do, or bond the way that they do is because your INCREASING the _________ of that molecule or WATER!

***The reason why molecules break apart, or form the 3D structure that they do, or bond the way that they do is because your INCREASING the ENTROPY(disorder) of that molecule or WATER!

**ALL OF THE NONCOVALENT INTERACTIONS between molecules including hydrogen bonding, ionic interactions, vander waals TOGETHER determine the 3D STRUCTURE OF PROTEINS! (SIDE NOTE MUST HAVE CORRECT IONIC CHARGES together for ionic interactions - If you have 2 negative charges, repel interact with each other, molecules look a lot bigger)

**ON TEST: IN MEDICINE ENZYME and SUBSTRATE: 1) An enzyme and substrate or molecules binding to each other, to turn/on off signal in medicine = NONCOVALENT INTERACTIONS ex: Thinking about Molecules binding to each other. When you take ADVIL MEDICINE, the medicine MUST BIND to a ______ PROTEIN, the binding turns OFF the signal-->WHICH STOPS HEADACHE :) **The interaction of the molecule binding to the SUBSTRATE PROTEIN-->MUST use ______interaction. You must have the right amount of hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic pockets, molecule must be hydrophobic (sterol groups), abide by vanderwaals interactions (molecules only going to interact so much with one another), must abide by ionic interactions (if the pocket has a lot of positive charges, the molecule must have a negative charge to offset it).

**ON TEST: IN MEDICINE: An enzyme and substrate binding to each other (think about molecules binding to each other), to turn/on off signal in medicine = NONCOVALENT INTERACTIONS ex: Thinking about Molecules binding to each other. When you take ADVIL MEDICINE, the medicine MUST BIND to a SUBSTRATE PROTEIN, the binding turns OFF the signal-->WHICH STOPS HEADACHE :) **The interaction of the molecule binding to the SUBSTRATE PROTEIN-->MUST use NONCOVALENT interaction. You must have the right amount of hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic pockets, molecule must be hydrophobic (sterol groups), abide by vanderwaals interactions (molecules only going to interact so much with one another), must abide by ionic interactions (if the pocket has a lot of positive charges, the molecule must have a negative charge to offset it). FORCES used in molecules BINDING to each other involve= NONCOVALENT INTERACTIONS.

**ON TEST: 1) Covalent bonds = _____bonds = ______bonds = ____to break and form. 2) Hydrogen bonds = _____bonds=_____bonds

**ON TEST: 1) Covalent bonds = SHORTER bonds = STRONGER bonds = HARDER to break and requires a LOT MORE energy break and form covalent bonds = about 350-400 kJ 2) HYDROGEN bonds = LONGER bonds = HYDROGEN bonds WEAKER bond interaction than covlaent = EASIER TO BREAK and IT TAKES a SMALL/LITTLE AMOUNT of energy to break and form hydrogen bonds = about only 4kJ to break hydrogen bonds

**ON TEST: THE fact that ICE can _____and is less dense than ____is essential to life because otherwise it would sink and kill life on Earth. What property because of the molecular composition of ICE what does it do in water? In the winter time, the TOP layer of liquid water starts to FREEZE, which makes it less dense than water and the ability to form 4 hydrogen bonds as a solid. If the water didn't have the ability to freeze, the ice would SINK to the bottom and KILL life on earth!!!

**ON TEST: THE fact that ICE can FLOAT and is less dense than liquid water is essential to life because otherwise it would sink and kill life on Earth. SOLID ICE FLOATS in water. ICE is LESS dense than water, due to the fact that SOLID ice can form the full array of hydrogen BONDS - 4. The ability for SOLID ICE to form 4 HYDROGEN BONDS, makes it LESS dense so it will FLOAT in liquid water. Liquid water can only form 3.4 hydrogen bonds on average. LATTICE STRUCTURE of ICE = more hydrogen bonds = LESS DENSE.

Hydrogen each has 1 valence electrons. -->Water has 2 lone pair of electrons on OXYGEN. 4) How electronegative is oxygen? OXYGEN is SOOO Electronegative, pulling electrons away from hydrogen. ELECTRONS are pulled toward the OXYGEN in water due to its electronegativity. 5) Due to the electronegativity: Hydrogen has a partial positive charge, oxygen has a partial negative charge. WATER has DIPOLE MOMENT= HAS both partial positive and negative charges occur water molecule. 6) ***IMPORTANT= WATER has a DIPOLE (partial pos and neg charges attract) that can INTERACT with other molecules. (ex: partial pos of Water can interact with partial neg of another molecule. partial neg of water can also interact with partial pos of another molecule). 7)*IMPORTANT - Water has a TETRAHEDRON LIKE shape because of its properties.

ON TEST: 1) Can Lipids dissolve in water? Why or why not? 2) WHAT happens when you put OIL in water?

ON TEST: Can Lipids dissolve in water? Why or why not? 1) LIPID molecules can NOT dissolve in water because lipid molecules can NOT hydrogen bond. Lipid molecules have chains of carbons and hydrogens that are nonpolar which can NOT interact with polar water. 2) WHAT happens when you put OIL in water? Oil and water do NOT mix. POLAR WATER is happy minding its own business molecules moving around, very disordered--->then you ADD OIL-->you have to interact with water but you can NOT hydrogen bond-->you have to ADD a hydration layer. All of the water you add has to hydrate each kind fatty acid. **Before adding oil, water was DISORDERED, HIGH ENTROPY and HAPPY. After adding oil, WATER became ORDERED, LOWER ENTROPY and UNHAPPY entropy wise. ***HIGH ENTROPY = Water molecules can interact with each other, very disordered ***LOWER entropy = Water interacting with FATTY acid. WHY they start to aggregate together (water and oil) because you need to get ENTROPY back to a HIGHER ENTROPY. ***In order to get back to a HIGHER ENTROPY, you must put FATTY ACID MOLECULES TOGETHER, it releases the WATER between them, CREATES more disorder and water becomes HAPPY, HIGH ENTROPY! **You still can NOT dissolve in water, but you sit in water. Fatty acids sit in water but can NOT dissolve? ** Oil and water do NOT mix. Because of Entropy. WATER = ENTROPY DRIVING!!

ON TEST: The Hydrophobic Effect=____interaction between 2 molecules explains: 1) ______ portions of the ampiphathic molecule aggregate so that FEWER water molecules are ordered and ENTROPY INCREASES. 2) ALL ______ GROUPS are sequestered from water, and the released water molecules _____ the entropy further. 3) ONLY ____ "head groups are exposed" of the lipid molecule. 4) Only _____portions at the edge of the cluster force the ORDERING OF _____. 5) _____ WATER molecules are ordered and ENTROPY is ______.

ON TEST: The Hydrophobic Effect=NONCOVALENT interaction between 2 molecules explains: 1) NONPOLAR portions of the ampiphathic molecule aggregate so that FEWER water molecules are ordered and ENTROPY INCREASES. 2) ALL NONPOLAR GROUPS are sequestered from water, and the released water molecules increase the entropy further. 3) ONLY POLAR "head groups are exposed" 4) Only LIPID portions at the edge of the cluster force the ORDERING OF WATER. 5) FEWER WATER molecules are ordered and ENTROPY is INCREASED!

ORIGIN of the HYDROPHOBIC EFFECT = NONCOVALENT INTERACTION

**WHY DOES SALT dissolve in WATER?

Salt Na+Cl- Dissolves in WATER: 1) Take equation F=Q₁Q₂ ÷ εr² F= FORCE needed to break molecules apart Q₁ = CHARGE + Q₂ = CHARGE - ε = (sigma) DI-ELECTRIC CONSTANT r = radius (how close are two molecules to each other) 2) DI-Electric Constant =ε= tells me how good is that solvent at shielding the charges from seeing each other. ex: WATER has a very HIGH Di-Electric Constant = around ε= 80 = If you place salt in WATER its going to dissolve faster, separate ions better! ex2:Alcohol (OH) group MORE POLAR= Its DI-Electric Constant is ONLY around 4. **If you put something in alcohol like salt, it will probably NOT dissolve because it is not able to shield the charges???? **If you place salt in alcohol, because of its LOW dielectric constant its not going to dissolve/separate ions as well in alcohol. 3) Once Na+Cl- is placed in water, due to its DIELECTRIC constant it BREAKS NaCl apart and WATER HYDRATES THAT MOLECULE!!! A) Water's partial positive charge is attracted/HYDRATES the negative Cl ion. B) Water's partial negitive charge (oxygen) is attracted to and hydrates the SODIUM (Na+ ION) 4) WATER forms a PLATHRATE STRUCTURE/forms a SHELL around the NaCl molecule. 5) Because the DIELECTRIC CONSTANT is SO HIGH, the charges will NOT see each other when they are broken apart. SALT dissolves and STAYS dissolved in the solution. ex: If you add heat, water begins to evaporate and it precipitates back out its salt = THINK about DIELECTRIC constant and IONIC interactions. 6) Causes a LOT of disorder entropy when salt is dissolved, Salt has a NICE LATTICE structure ----once salt dissolves and breaks apart-->causes an INCREASE in entropy disorder in the system **ENTROPY drives interaction!

WHY are NONPOLAR molecules poorly soluble in water?

WHY are NONPOLAR molecules LIKE CARBON DIOXIDE poorly soluble in water? CARBON DIOXIDE =NONPOLAR= even though carbon dioxide has partial negative charges on oxygen, both partial negatives cancel out so the molecule is NONPOLAR. CARBON DIOXIDE GAS is poorly soluble in water. Carbon Dioxide = NONPOLAR and water is POLAR so NOT able to FORM HYDROGEN BOND and INTERACT with WATER--that's why carbon dioxide is a gas! **In order for carbon dioxide to transport through the body, it must be converted from its gas form to something else because it will not hydrogen bond or interact with water in its gas form. CO2 gas = NONPOLAR and WATER = POLAR--->does not MIX!
