Physical Properties of Water
Each single water molecule can form bonds with four other water molecules in a tetrahedral arrangement. Although these bonds are weak they lead to many other unique properties. The V-shape ... hydrophobic portions stick together, as do the hydrophilic bits. A very stable form of this arrangement is the lipid bilayer. This way the hydrophobic parts of the molecule form one layer ...

Chemical Properties of Water
The water molecule maintains a bent shape because of two considerations: 1. The tetrahedral arrangement around the oxygen. 2. The presence of lone pair electrons on the oxygen. Two electrons ... do a similar arrangement of water, putting oxygen in the center, and using the two hydrogens and two lone pairs at the corners, we also come up with a tetrahedral arrangement. However, there ...
