1. The dipole moment in a water molecule Which statement about hydrogen bonds is
NOT true?
A) Hydrogen bonds account for the anomalously high boiling point of water.
B) In liquid water, the average water molecule forms hydrogen bonds with three to
four other water molecules.
C) Individual hydrogen bonds are much weaker than covalent bonds.
D) Individual hydrogen bonds in liquid water exist for many seconds and
sometimes for minutes. – SOLUTION
E) The strength of a hydrogen bond depends on the linearity of the three atoms
involved in the bond.

in water. – SOLUTION
B) do not contribute to the structure of water-soluble proteins.
C) have bonding energies of approximately 20–40 Kjoule per mole.
D) involve the ability of water to denature proteins.
E) primarily involve the effect of polar solutes on the entropy of aqueous systems.
3. Hydrophobic interactions make important energetic contributions to:
A) binding of a hormone to its receptor protein.
B) enzyme-substrate interactions.
C) membrane structure.
D) three-dimensional folding of a polypeptide chain.
E) All of the answers are correct. – SOLUTION
4. Dissolved solutes alter some physical (colligative) properties of the solvent water
because they change the:
A) concentration of the water. – SOLUTION
B) hydrogen bonding of the water.
C) ionic bonding of the water.
D) pH of the water.
