Chapter 3. Water— The Elixir of Life! 12/1/2018

Why are we studying water? All life occurs in water inside & outside the cell 12/1/2018

Chemistry of water Water is polar molecule 12/1/2018

Chemistry of water H2O molecules form H bonds with each other 12/1/2018

Cohesion H bonding between H2O creates cohesion 12/1/2018

Water is the solvent of life H2O is a good solvent due to its polarity What dissolves in water easily? polar or non-polar molecules? How about Oxygen? Does that dissolve in H2O? 12/1/2018

Hydrophilic Hydrophilic substances have affinity for H2O polar or non-polar? ionic What dissolves in water easily? polar or non-polar molecules? How about Oxygen? Does that dissolve in H2O? 12/1/2018

Hydrophobic Hydrophobic substances do not have affinity for H2O polar or non-polar? non-ionic What dissolves in water easily? polar or non-polar molecules? How about Oxygen? Does that dissolve in H2O? 12/1/2018 fat (triglycerol)

The special case of ice 12/1/2018

Ice floats 12/1/2018

Why is “ice floats” important? 12/1/2018

Specific heat H2O has high specific heat due to H bonding H2O resists changes in temperature takes a lot to heat it up takes a lot to cool it down H2O moderates temperatures on Earth 12/1/2018

Evaporative cooling Organisms rely on heat of vaporization to remove heat 12/1/2018

Water forms ions Hydrogen ion (H+) splits off from water to leave a hydroxide ion (-OH) H20 ----> H+ + -OH If concentration of 2 ions is equal, water is neutral If [H+] > [-OH], water is acidic If [-OH] > [H+], water is basic pH scale = how acidic or basic a solution is 12/1/2018

pH Scale In pure water only 1 water molecule in every 554 million is dissociated. very small amount of ions [H+] or [OH-] is 10-7M [H+] [OH-] = 10-14 pH scale is based on this equation Exercise = acidic in muscles CO2 = carbonic acid lactic acid body uses buffers to counter act this 12/1/2018

pH Scale In neutral solution [H+] = 10-7  pH = 7 Values for pH decline as [H+] increase Acids adding acid increases [H+] Bases adding base increases [OH-] 12/1/2018

pH & Biology pH of a neutral solution = 7 Acidic solutions = pH < 7 Basic solutions = pH > 7 Most biological fluids have pH 6 – 8 pH values in human stomach can reach 2 Each pH unit represents a 10-fold difference in H+ & OH- concentrations. small change in pH actually indicates a substantial change in [H+] & [OH-] 12/1/2018

Punchline Water is a polar molecule The special properties of water make life on Earth possible The chemical behavior of water governs how organisms function 12/1/2018

Any Questions?? 12/1/2018

Another problem with “water” OOPS!! 12/1/2018
