To pull a sock off when it's wet?

The same reason why O.J. couldn't get the glove to fit!

Water is made of the elements hydrogen and oxygen, when the two are bonded together they make a polar covalent bond (a bond where the
electrons are closer to one side of the compound than the other, so one side has a slightly positive charge while the other is slightly negative). This is because oxygen has a higher Electronegativity (3.5) so oxygen is slightly negative. Electronegativity is the measurement of an elements hold on its electrons. Because water is non-polar covalent it has a positive and negative side. so thus it forms weak hydrogen bonds with sediments on roads and allowing them to have the same fluidity as water. because of this they have very little surface tension and the tires of a car will slide. but that is not so for things such as clothes. clothes form these bonds with your skin, and as a result its hard to pull wet clothes off. ***um, that was cut and paste...I'm a nerd, but even I have my limits. |
