CELLS/Chemistry/Bonds/screen 3
On the basis of the bonding patterns shown for Hydrogen, Water, Methane and Oxygen how many oxygen atoms would you expect to bond to a carbon atom, the atom with the green nucleus in methane?
CELLS/Chemistry/Bonds/screen 5
Compare the bonding patterns shown here and on screen 3. Why do you think that the covalent bond is stronger than the ionic bond?
CELLS/Chemistry/Water/screen 4
Why do the leaves and the petals of a flower tend to wilt if you wait too long, after cutting the stem, before you place them in water, but they seldom wilt if you cut the stem ends underwater?
