Water
Hydrogen bonding in water
H2O molecules polar and linked by hydrogen bonds
covalent bond 2H, O
H partial positive; O partial negative
bent; poles are 2H and O
positive and negative ions attract and form ionic bonds
water - partial charge; less attraction, hydrogen bond
intermolecular force rather than bond
slightly positive pole weakly attracted to slightly negative pole
Properties of water
Cohesive properties
binding of two molecules of the same type
due to hydrogen bonding
useful for water transport in plants
xylem sucks up water at low pressure
Adhesive properties
hydrogen bonds between water and other polar molecules
useful in leaves
water adheres to cellulose in cell wall
water absorbed from nearest xylem in case of evaporation from leaf via air network spaces to keep walls moist for CO2 absorption
Thermal properties
High specific heat capacity
H bonds restrict motion so high heat required to break them
relatively large amount of energy needed
thermally stable habitat
High latent heat of vaporisation
lots of energy needed for evaporation to break H bonds
Good evaporative coolant
High boiling point
100 degrees Celsius for same reason
Solvent properties
polarity prevents molecules from clumping
dissolves molecules
cytoplasm - complex mixture of dissolved substances
Hydrophilic and hydrophobic
hyrophilic = water loving
substances that dissolve in water like glucose, sodium and chloride ions
substances that water adheres to such as cellulose
hydrophobic = water "fearing"
insoluble in water
non polar and no charge
all lipids such as fats and oils
forces that cause non polar substances to form groups = hydrophobic interactions
Comparing water and methane
methane = waste product of anaerobic respiration where oxygen is lacking by certain prokar.
methanogenic prokar. live in swamps, wetlands, animal guts, waste dumps
methane fuel & greenhouse gas
both small molecules linked by single covalent bonds
water polar, forms H bonds methane non polar, cannot form H bonds
Cooling the body with sweat
sweat carried via narrow ducts to skin surface where spread out and released
heat on skin used to evaporate sweat and cool blood
solutes in sweat left on skin
controlled by hypothalmus in brain
Transport in blood plasma
Sodium chloride
amino acids
Glucose
Oxygen
Fat molecules
Cholestrol
