Document Summary

Nitrogen (3%: an atom"s electrons determine how and whether it will bond with other atoms: 2, 8, 8, an atom with a charge is called an ion. Bonds: a group of atoms held together by bonds are called molecules (requires energy); releases energy when bonds are broken, polar: magnet-like molecules with distinctive positive and negative regions. Covalent bonds: strong bonds formed when two atoms share electrons (h2 and o2); achieves stability by from sharing; sharing of two atoms are called double bonds. Hydrogen bonds: important in bonding multi-atom molecules together; hydrogen bonds are already covalently bonded with another molecule but the electrons in the covalent bonds are not equally shared; weaker than covalent & ionic. Large heat capacity: as more heat is set towards the water molecules, hydrogen bonds get disrupted but are formed else-where again very quickly; water molecules itself don"t increase their movie.
