properties of water quiz
hydrogen bonding
acts as a magnet
expanding when freezing
allows aquatic life to survive in winter
hydrogen bonding
allows for all other properties of water
adhesion
creates a meniscus in a graduated cylinder
universal solvent
dissolved more than any other liquid
cohesion
gives a water drop it's signature shape
expanding when freezing
hydrogen bonding gets stronger as the temp decreases
expanding when freezing
ice is less dense allowing it to float
specific heat
provides stability of temperature for land masses surrounded by water
cohesion
surface tension
cohesion
water attracted to itself
universal solvent
water carries vital substance such as O2, CO2, and Na+
adhesion
water is attracted to a paper towel to clean up messes
universal solvent
water is plolar ( + and - ) allowing it to dissolve solutes that are also polar
specific heat
water makes an effective coolant for the human body via evaporation or perspiration
hydrogen bonding
must be broken down in order for liquid water to become a stream
specific heat
The amount of energy a substance can absorb
adhesion
H2O sticking to another substance
