Hydrogen bond
The oxygen nucleus attracts
electrons more strongy than does the hydrogen nucleus; that is, oxygen is more electronegative. The sharing electrons between H and O is therefore unequal. As a result, there is an electrostatic attraction between the oxygen atom of one water molecule and hydrogen of another, called a hydrogen bond.
Those in liquid water have a bond dissociation energy (the energy required to break a bond) of about 23 kJ/mol, compared with 470 kJ/mol for the covalent O-H in water or 348 kJ/mol for a covalent C-C bond.
Ionic interaction
Water is especially effective in screening
the electrostatic interaction between dissolved ions because it has a high dielectric constant (78.5). The strengh, or force (F), of ionic interactions in a solution: Q1Q2 F = .r2
Hydrophobic interaction
When an amphipathic compound
(contain regions that are polar and regions that are nonpalar), is mixed with water, the polar, hydrophilic region interacts favorably with the solvent and tends to dissolve, but the nonpolar, hydrophobic regions tends to avoid contact with water.
Polar
Nonpolar
Amphipathic
The nonpolar regions of the molecules cluster together to present the smallest hydrophobic area, and the polar regions are arranged to maximize their interaction to the solvent. These stable structures in water called micelles. The forces that hold the nonpolar regions of the molecules together are called hydrophobic interactions.

resist changes in pH when small amounts of acid (H+) or base (OH-) are added. A buffer system consists of a weak acid and its conjugate base. As an example, a mixture of equal concentration sof acetic acid and acetate ion, found at the midpoint of titration curve, is a buffer.

1. Calculate the pKa of lactic acid, given
that when the concentration of lactic acid is 0.01 M and concentration of lactate is 0.087 M, the pH is 4.8. (3.9) 2. Calculate the pH of a mixture of 0.1 M acetic acid and 0.2 M sodium acetate. The pKa of acetic acid is 4.76. (5.1). 3. Calculate the ratio of the concentrations of acetate and acetic acid required in a
vinegar is to prepare a solution of acetic acid component of vinegar, at the proper pH (see Fig.2-15) and add appropriate flavoring agents. Acetic acid is a liquid at 25oC, with a density of 1.049 g/ml. Calculate the volume that must be added to distilled water to make 1 lit of simulated vinegar. (Ka = 1.74 x 10-5M)
laboratory, a 10.0 ml sample of gastric juice, otained several hours after meal, was titrated with 0.1 M NaOH to neutrality; 7.2 ml of NaOH was required. The patient's stomach contained no ingested food or drink, thus assume that no buffers were present. What was the pH of the gastric juice?
contains 0.01 mol of lactic acid (pKa=3,86) and 0.05 mol of sodium lactate per liter.
Calculate the pH of the buffer. Calculate the change in pH when 5 mL of 0.5 M HCl is added to 1 L of buffer. What pH change would you expect if you added the same quantity of HCl to 1 L of pure water?
