1. Introduction: Water Makes Life Possible

Liquid water is the environment in which life occurs. You can think of this on two levels.
1.1. Living things are mostly water
Step on a scale. If you took all of the water out of your body, your weight would only be about 40% of what it is now (source: US Geological Survey). And, of course, you wouldn’t be alive. Most humans can survive for a few weeks without food. But stop drinking, and, in a few days, life ends. And this isn’t only true of humans: it’s true of almost all living things.
1.2. Life Depends on Water.
Astronomically speaking, life only exists where there is water in a liquid form. It’s no accident that of the planets in our solar system, Earth is the one with life. That’s because Earth is in a narrow zone where average surface temperatures let water exist in its liquid form, as opposed to gaseous steam or solid ice. Life needs liquid water. So let’s see how water works.

Interactive Reading 1: The Structure of Water

[h]The Structure of Water: Interactive Reading 1
[i]
[q]
2.1 In Basic Chemistry for Biology Students, we learned how to use the Octet Rule to draw diagrams of molecules. Just for review, draw two diagrams of hydrogen gas, H2. Remember that a hydrogen atom has one proton and one electron. Your first diagram should be an electron distribution model (showing the atomic nuclei and the electron energy levels). The second should be a structural formula.

Hydrogen, showing energy levels and electron sharing | Hydrogen, structural formula |
[q]Now let’s look at water. Water’s chemical formula is H2O. Hydrogen has one proton and one electron. Oxygen has 8 protons, 8 neutrons, and 8 electrons. Use that information to draw a diagram of a water molecule that shows electron sharing between the single oxygen and the two hydrogens. Then, draw the structural formula. When you’re done, click below to see the solution.

Interactive Reading 2: Water and Polarity

[h]Interactive Reading 2: Water, Polarity, and Hydrogen Bonding
[i]Now that we know what water looks like on a molecular level, let’s see how water’s structure determines its chemical properties.
[q labels = “top”]We’ll begin with the concept of polarity.
The Earth is polar. What that means is that it has two _______. A north and a south pole.
Magnets are also polar. Like the Earth, a bar magnet has a north and a south pole. The north pole of one ________ is attracted to the _______ pole of another magnet. Two south poles, by contrast, push each other ________ (as do two north poles).
[l]apart
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Good!
[l]magnet
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Excellent!
[l]poles
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Great!
[l]south
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Great!
[q labels = “top”]The rules for magnets are
- Like poles __________________
- Opposite poles ____________________
[l]attract (pull together)
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Good!
[l]repel (push away)
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Correct!
[q labels = “top”]Like a magnet, water is also polar. We’ll get into the details in a moment, but for now, just take a good look at this electron distribution model of water, and identify where you think there’ll be a more negatively charged side, and where there’ll be a more positively charged side.
[l]more negatively charged
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Correct!
[l]more positively charged
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Great!
[q labels = “top”]
Let’s dig a little bit deeper so we can understand why water is a polar molecule.
- The nucleus of the oxygen atom has eight protons, or eight _________ charges.
- The two hydrogen nuclei each have only one __________, or one positive charge.
- Those eight protons in the oxygen nucleus are going to pull on the 10 __________ in the molecule with a lot more force than the single proton in each hydrogen nucleus.
- As a result, the oxygen side of the molecule will tend to have more electrons, and have a slight _________ charge. By contrast, the region around the two hydrogen nuclei will tend to have ______ electrons, and have slight positive charge.
- In sum, water isn’t just a covalently bonded molecule. Because electron sharing is unequal, and results in polarity, the bonds have special name: they’re called ______ _________ bonds.
[l]electrons
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Correct!
[l]less
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Good!
[l]negative

[f*] Great!
[l]positive
[fx] No, that’s not correct. Please try again.
[f*] Great!
[l]proton
[fx] No. Please try again.
[f*] Great!
[q labels = “top”] The charges on water are not full charges, like the ones you’d find on a positive or negative ion. They’re much weaker (though, as we’ll see, they have important consequences). These partial charges are represented with the symbol”?” (Greek for “delta”). So, a partial positive charge is represented by ?+ and a partial negative is represented by ?–. Use these symbols to label all three of the representations of water below.

[q labels = “top”]Water molecules, as you can see here, are “sticky.” Remember that this stickiness is on a molecular level. Here are two key points to keep in mind.
- The oxygen end of one water molecule, with its partially ___________ charge, will temporarily bond with the __________ end of another water molecule, with its partially positive charge.
- The bond that forms between one water molecule and the next is called a hydrogen bond.

[q]Hydrogen bonds are weak and temporary. But, in any body of water–anything from the tiniest droplet to an ocean – they have enormous consequences. We’ll look at these consequences in the next tutorial. Before that, though, let’s compare water to another molecule that we’ve met before: methane: CH4.
Take a good look at the electron sharing between carbon and the four hydrogens in methane. Based on the way it looks, do you think that methane is polar or non-polar?

[q]Methane, with its non-polar electron sharing, is the opposite of a magnet. There’s no positive or negative pole. Methane molecules aren’t attracted to one another (or to anything else).
Keeping that in mind, make a prediction (and feel free to use prior knowledge in your answer). Methane and water have just about the same molecular weight (they both have about the same number of neutrons and protons). At room temperature, methane will be a

Key Concepts of Water: A Quick Review
Before we go on to learning about the properties of water caused by its polarity, let’s review what we’ve learned so far. Read over these key ideas, then work on the flashcards below.
- Water is the most important molecule, by weight, in living things.
- When atoms in a molecule share electrons unequally, the molecule becomes polar.
- Water molecules are polar.
- Because water molecules are polar, they form hydrogen bonds with one another.
