Which bonds often bind different parts of a molecule into a specific three dimensional shape?
Hydrogen
What forces and bonds maintain the three dimensional folded shape of a protein molecule?
hydrogen bonds
What is the difference between molecular geometry and molecular structure?
Molecular geometry is the distances and angles between the each of the different atoms in the molecule. It is essentially the shape of the molecule.Molecular structure includes the shape of the molecule, but also much more, such as its electronic structure. This includes the nature of the bonding in the molecule (such as where there are single, double or triple bonds), the polarity of the molecule (if the electrons are spread out evenly throughout the molecule or if they are concentrated in particular areas, and if so, what areas), etc.
What does delocalized mean?
DelocalisedThe term 'delocalised' refers to an electron which is not 'attached' to a particular atom. For example, in metals, some of the outer electrons are delocalised and are free to move around the whole metal solid. This is why metals conduct electricity. Another example of delocalised electrons is in benzene (C6H6), a cyclic molecule composed of a ring of bonded carbons, with one hydrogen attached to each. In benzene, the electrons in the C-C pi-bonds (basically the double bonds) are delocalised the whole molecule. If you look at the location of these pi-bonding electrons, they are found evenly distributed in a ring around the entire molecule. In this case, the delocalisation can be explained by something called 'resonance forms.' Often, molecules with alternating double bonds show delocalised bonding.However, to truly understand the concept of delocalisation, some basic quantum mechanics must be used, and delocalised bonding in molecules is best explained by molecular orbital theory. In reality, all electrons are somewhat delocalised and are never associated with exactly one bond (in molecules with more than 2 atoms). Some are more localised than others (specific electrons stay mostly with specific bonds), while some are more delocalized (electrons are very free to move about many different bonds in the molecule)
Is carbon dioxide polar or non- polar?
It is a non-polar molecule. But it has polar covalent bonds between its atoms
Which bonds often bind different parts of a molecule into a specific three dimensional shape?
Hydrogen
How many bonds are necessary to form a ammonia?
There are three different covalent bonds in one molecule of ammonia
What bond is formed in methane?
Methane is a molecule with covalent bonds. Then again, there are different types of bonds. To be specific, Methane is a tetrahedral molecule with covalent long single bonds.
What is the chemical structure of the molecule?
I'd need to know the specific molecule you're referring to in order to provide its chemical structure. Each molecule has a unique arrangement of atoms and bonds.
When does the shape of a molecule affect it's polarity?
when the molecule contains polar bonds
What is it called when two different atoms combine?
When two different atoms combine, it is called a chemical bond. This can occur through different types of interactions such as covalent bonds, ionic bonds, or metallic bonds. The resulting molecule or compound formed can have different properties than the individual atoms.
What is made of different atoms joined together?
Molecules are made of different atoms joined together through chemical bonds.
Which molecule is the conformational diastereomer to the molecule at the top?
The molecule that is the conformational diastereomer to the molecule at the top is the one that has a different spatial arrangement of atoms due to rotation around single bonds.
How do rotatable bonds affect the conformational flexibility of a molecule?
Rotatable bonds in a molecule increase its conformational flexibility by allowing the molecule to rotate around those bonds, leading to different spatial arrangements of the atoms. This flexibility enables the molecule to adopt various shapes and conformations, which can impact its chemical properties and interactions with other molecules.
Bonds that hold DNA bases together?
Hydrogen bonds hold together the nucleotide bases in a DNA molecule. There are specific base pairings: adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), connected by hydrogen bonds. These bonds contribute to the stability and structure of the DNA molecule.
Where is energy stored in a molecule?
The nucleusAdenosine Triphosphate, often abbreviated ATP, is the molecule, created by cell respiration in the mitochondria of animal cells and photosynthesis in the chloroplasts of plants, in which energy is stored.
Does water have hydrogen bonds?
Yes, water has hydrogen bonds. These bonds form between the hydrogen atoms of one water molecule and the oxygen atom of another water molecule. This gives water its unique properties such as high surface tension and specific heat capacity.
