Chapter 3 Vocabulary
• Polar Covalent Bonds - A covalent bond between atoms that differ in
electronegativity. The shared electrons are pulled closer to the more
electronegative atom, making it slightly negative and the other atom slightly
positive.

• Polar Molecule - A molecule (such as water) with an uneven distribution of
charges in different regions of the molecule.

• Hydrogen Bonds - Hydrogen bonding, interaction involving a hydrogen atom
located between a pair of other atoms having a high affinity for electrons; such a
bond is weaker than an ionic bond or covalent bond but stronger than van der
Waals forces.

• Cohesion - The linking together of like molecules, often by hydrogen bonds.

• Adhesion - the attraction between two different substances or molecules.

• Surface Tension - A measure of how difficult it is to stretch or break the surface
of a liquid. Water has a high surface tension because of the hydrogen bonding of
surface molecules.

• Kinetic Energy - The energy associated with the relative motion of objects.
Moving matter can perform work by imparting motion to other matter.

• Thermal Energy - Kinetic energy due to the random motion of atoms and
molecules; energy in its most random form. See also heat.

• Temperature - A measure in degrees of the average kinetic energy (thermal
energy) of the atoms and molecules in a body of matter.

• Heat - Thermal energy in transfer from one body of matter to another.

• Calorie (cal) - The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of 1
g of water by 1°C; also the amount of heat energy that 1 g of water releases when
it cools by 1°C. The Calorie (with a capital C), usually used to indicate the energy
content of food, is a kilocalorie.
