Section 3 Water and Solutions
Chapter 2
Objectives
Describe the structure of a water molecule.
Explain how water’s polar nature affects its ability to dissolve substances.
Outline the relationship between hydrogen bonding and the different properties of water.
Identify the roles of solutes and solvents in solutions.
Differentiate between acids and bases.

26. Section 3 Water and Solutions
Chapter 2
Polarity
Water is considered to be a polar molecule due to an uneven distribution of charge.
The electrons in a water molecule are shared unevenly between hydrogen and oxygen.

Polarity, continued
Solubility of Water
The polarity of water makes it effective at dissolving other polar substances such as sugars, ionic compounds, and some proteins.

28. Section 3 Water and Solutions
Chapter 2
Solutions
A solution consists of a solute dissolved in a solvent.

29. Salt dissolving in water
Hydrogen bonds make water a good solvent.
Water molecules form shells around positive and negative ions, eliminating their attraction for each other.
