If water was a non polar molecule how would the properties of water be different

Polar : A polar molecule has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges from polar bonds arranged asymmetrical !! They are totally neutral !!

Non polar : The molecule which has symmetrical bonding as there is no shift in electron pair !!

So if water was non polar , Boiling point decreases , Surface tension decresases , Density goes down !! and many more !!

What are polar and non-polar molecules?

→ A polar molecule is a molecule which contains both negative and positive charges in one moleucle, although they're not that strong. You might say they're haf positive and half negative (but not neutral).

→ A non-polar molecule is a molecule which is either sharing an equivalent amount of electrons between the atoms inside it, or because it has a symmetrical, linear geometry. In these molecules, there is also no dipole.


How does that affect the water's properties?

So, just a tiny atomic-sized change can influence on how the water interacts with their environment. No matter how small the change is, if it changes a basis of the waters properties, it'll affect the properties itself, of course.


Moving on to the changes. What are some noticable changes?

We can see in the 2 explanations above, that, there is a difference between bonding and atom aranging in non-polar and polar molecules. This can affect things such as surface tension, and the hydrogen bonds.

We also see there is a difference in the charge of atoms, and therefore the charge of the molecule, which can affect conductivity and the interaction of water with other molecules specially ions.

→ There will also be more physical changes, rather than only chemical ones, but the 2 above are the most noticable and probably important ones.

jeyben [28]

Question:All known organisms use genetic information to produce protein molecules via the same genetic code. This finding strongly supports the hypothesis that __________.

a) the earliest macromolecules probably arose when lightning struck an oxygen-free atmosphere

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

c) the genetic code readily evolves by natural selection

d) there's only one possible way to encode information in a macromolecule

Answer:

b) all organisms are descended from one or a few common ancestors

Explanation:

Protein synthesis occurs when the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA is read in the form of genetic codes. A specific genetic code specifies the same amino acid in all living beings. For example, the code "UUU" codes for phenylalanine in all the living beings irrespective of their species. This suggests that all the life forms have originated from one or few common ancestors and the genetic code has been preserved during the course of evolution of various species.
