Concept explainers
To analyze:
The formation of hydrogen bonding.
Introduction:
Molecules are attached together by various forces. One type of bonding between molecules is hydrogen bonding.
Hydrogen bonding is of two types:
- Intermolecular hydrogen bonding: Hydrogen bonding within two water molecules.
- Intramolecular hydrogen bonding: Hydrogen bonding within the single water molecule.
Water is a universal solvent because it forms hydrogen bonds with most elements. It has a high heat of vaporization, and it has both cohesive as well as adhesive properties. When the water molecules stick together this property is known as the cohesion property of water.
An adhesion force is the force of attraction in which the water molecules get attached to each other through hydrogen bonding.
Heat capacity (Cp): It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a given mass of a substance by one degree Celsius.
The heat of vaporization: It is also termed as enthalpy or latent heat of vaporization. It is the amount of heat required by a liquid substance to change its state from liquid to vapor.
