  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. How does polarity affect chromatography? + Example - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-does-polarity-affect-chromatography

    For example, the positive side is attracted to the negative side of another molecule (opposites attract). The larger the charge difference, the more polar a molecule is. You will find that as you increase the polarity of the solvent, all the components of the mixture move faster during your chromatography experiment.

  4. Why are polar molecules hydrophilic? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/why-polar-molecules-are-hydrophilic

    Ammonia is a polar molecule, with the Nitrogen end having a negative charge and the hydrogen ends having a positive charge.This molecule is attracted by water or this molecule is water loving or (hydrophlic). The Positive ends of water molecule. ( Hydrogen atoms) binds with the negative end of ammonia molecule .

  5. Dipole-Dipole Interactions - Chemistry - Socratic

    Non-polar molecules can also have temporary dipoles. These form more often when the molecule has a large electron cloud (you can predict this from its molar mass). At any one instant, the electrons may be unevenly distributed, creating an instantaneous dipole within the molecule: one pole is delta negative, while the other is delta positive.

  6. How do polar molecules enter cells? - Socratic

    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 ...

  7. How is molecular polarity related to solubility? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-is-molecular-polarity-related-to-solubility

    Water is a polar solvent: the O end has a partial negative (δ−) charge, and the H ends have δ+ charges. When you put the salt in water, the δ+ ends of the water molecules surround the Cl− ions from the NaCl, and the δ− ends of the water surround the Na+ ions of the NaCl. The ions become solvated (hydrated). This is an energy-releasing ...

  8. How do polar molecules differ from nonpolar molecules?

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-polar-molecules-differ-from-nonpolar-molecules

    Ernest Z. Feb 3, 2014. Polar molecules differ from nonpolar molecules by having positive and negative ends and stronger intermolecular forces of attraction. A polar molecule such as water has a negative end and two positive ends. The charged end of one molecule is attracted to the oppositely charged end in a neighbouring molecule.

  9. How do polar covalent molecules dissolve in water? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/how-do-polar-covalent-molecules-dissolve-in-water

    1 Answer. "Like dissolves like." Water is a polar molecule, so any other polar molecule is likely to dissolve in it. Polar molecules (which may or may not consist of polar covalent bonds) do not have a symmetrical distribution of charge. One part of the molecule will be more negative (called partially negative) and another part will be more ...

  11. Hydrogen Bonds - Chemistry - Socratic

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

    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. This means that carbon dioxide is less soluble in water than polar ...
