Density of H2O

Property allows life to continue underwater Substance will float if it is less dense than another substance Water in liquid form is 1 g/m Water in solid form is .9167g/m

Water as a Universal Solvent


Water Knownis as made Universal of Hydrogen Solvent because more substances bonds in water than any other dissolve Oxygen becomes negative substance Hydrogen becomes positive Water takes valuable chemicals, This helps and water dissociate ionic nutrients, minerals compounds into their positive wherever it goes and negative ions

How does the meniscus form?


Cohesion is the property of like molecules (of the same substance) to stick to each other due to mutual attraction. Adhesion is the property of different molecules or surfaces to cling to each other

How does the meniscus form?


Adhesion Constituents: Effect: Dissimilar molecules Capillary action, meniscus Cohesion Similar molecules Surface tension, capillary action and meniscus

Cohesion of Water due to Hydrogen Bonds

Isnt sweating annoying


Helps maintain homeostasis in our body so we can live in warmer climates
Water has a high heat of vaporization Heat of vaporization amount of heat energy required to change the state of a substance from liquid to gas As sweat evaporates it takes heat with it cooling off our bodies

The Shape of Fallen Drops


Cohesion keeps the water molecules together They are attracted to each other like a magnet + When rain falls drops hit other drops and become larger
