Right before a predicted overnight freeze, farmers spray water on crops to protect the plants. Use the properties of water to explain how this method works. Be sure to identify why hydrogen bonds are responsible for this phenomenon.

Due to intermolecular hydrogen bonds, water has high specific heat. When water is cooled, many of these bonds are formed, which releases a significant amount of heat. This can provide some protection against freezing of the plants' leaves, thus protecting the cells from damage.
