    Why doesn't the hydrogen atoms on hexane get attractive by the negative charge of oxygen?

    is there a definition for "dissolve" and "solvent"?

    What is the rule of what kind of atoms like to bond? Why do the H and Na Atoms bond over the NaCl once it is in the water? Something with the elctronegativity, but it's kinda confusing because if the Na and the H like to bond, because they have higher attraction then ergo the cl and the other atom of the water must have a very low attraction but still bond because the others are taken!? does anyone know?

      H and Na don´t bond each other. They are both positive.

      @@datrebilmodeerf8146 I deleted it, yet thanks ;) So, yes Na+ and H+ obviously don't bond. I didn't pay attention. Oxygen is more electronegative than chlorine (I looked it up) so the O2- is a good attractor. But one could argue that Cl- (perhaps) would be more electronegative when oxygen has one H+ bonded. I think that - because oxygen has a full octett of valence-electrons when the H+es are bonded (vice versa the H+es have filled outer shells) - it would be too hard for the Cl- to detach them ;)

    I think the video doesn't really explain why water is a good solvent.

    • @AbuWalter
      @AbuWalter Před 2 lety

      its a good solvent because of its polarity and because the hydrogen bonds are able to be flexable and bond

      … ok bro idk how six people saw this and agreed with you, you are either joking or have ADHD, because he says it at the beginning of the vid lol. Literally stated that “what makes water such a good solvent is it’s polarity” as he goes on to literally explain how hydrogen bonds work. I know I’m 11 months late and you’ve probably already finished biology/chemistry but still gotta reply lol

      @@mango5509 I meant that the video does not explain why Na+ and Cl- "prefer" dissolves in water instead of keeping together. Nonetheless, the explanation is accurate and good. Maybe my commentary was imprecise and exaggerated.
