Conceptual Approch

Rain/Water
It’ such a key part of our lives – indeed, all of life – that it can be said to be quite literally elementary; but much of the way in which this vital
force is being used appears sometimes to lack some understanding of what water is, and how it behaves.
What makes water special?
Many of water’s roles in supporting life are due to its molecular structure and a few special properties. Water is a simple molecule composed
of two small, positively charged hydrogen atoms and one large negatively charged oxygen atom. When the hydrogens bind to the oxygen,
it creates an asymmetrical molecule with positive charge on one side and negative charge on the other side (Figure 1). This charge differential
is called polarity and dictates how water interacts with other molecules.
Water Chemistry. Water molecules are
made of two hydrogens and one oxygen.
These atoms are of different sizes and
charges, which creates the asymmetry
in the molecular structure and leads to
strong bonds between water and other
polar molecules, including water itself.
Cohesion - attraction of mollecules
for other molecules of the same kind
Adhesion - attraction of molecules of
different kinds.
Versatility and Adaptability make it
essential of all living matter
