Attractive forces between the positive end of one polar molecule and the negative end of another polar molecule

What kind of molecules present dipole forces?

Polar molecules

Structure of soap (nonpolar and polar ends); how does it work?

The soap molecule has two different ends, one that is hydrophilic (polar head) that binds with water and the other that is hydrophobic (non-polar hydrocarbon tail) that binds with grease and oil.

What is hydrogen bonding?

A hydrogen bond is an attraction between two atoms that already participate in other chemical bonds.

High Vapor Pressure

A liquid with weak intermolecular forces evaporates more easily and has a high vapor pressure.

Low Vapor Pressure

A liquid with stronger intermolecular forces does not evaporate easily and thus has a lower vapor pressure.

You get an upper respiratory infection when a virus (or bacteria) enters your respiratory system.

Protease inhibitors (Ritonavir) and proteases...what do they do?

‌Protease inhibitors, which figure among the key drugs used to treat HIV, work by binding to proteolytic enzymes (proteases). That blocks their ability to function. Protease inhibitors don't cure HIV. But by blocking proteases, they can stop HIV from reproducing itself.

Integrase inhibitors (Raltegravir) and integrase...what do they do?

Raltegravir is used along with other medications to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in adults and children who weigh at least 4.5 lbs. (2 kg). Raltegravir is in a class of medications called HIV integrase inhibitors. It works by decreasing the amount of HIV in the blood.

Examples of adrenocortical steroids and how they work

corticotropin. -releasing hormone (CRH), also called corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), is a peptide hormone that activates the synthesis and release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from the pituitary gland. In this way, CRH affects our response to stress, addiction and depression, amongst others.

glucocorticoids.

mineralocorticoids.

-Mineralocorticoids, such as aldosterone, promote sodium reabsorption in transporting epithelia of the kidneys, salivary glands, and large intestine. Sodium reabsorption is followed by passive reabsorption of water.
