NOTES: 2.2 – Properties of Water. Water Overview… Water is perhaps the most important compound in living organisms Because so many substances can dissolve.

 Water molecules are formed by covalent bonds that link two hydrogen (H) atoms to one oxygen (O) atom.  Water molecules have a slightly positive.

WATER AND LIFE Without water there is no life Cells are 70-90% water Most cells are surrounded by water The abundance of water is the main reason there.

WATER AND THE FITNESS OF THE ENVIRONMENT WATER. Chemistry of water Water is a POLAR molecule. This means it has covalent bonds that do not share electrons.

Water Basics Polar: part of the molecule is slightly positive… other part slightly negative – Oxygen (-) – Hydrogen (+) Oxygen “hogs” hydrogen electrons.

Chemistry of Life Bio.2 a,b – Cells Macromolecules Molecules Atoms.

Oxygen part has a slightly negative charge and the hydrogen parts a slightly positive charge – Water molecules “stick” to one another by a hydrogen bond.

Properties of Water The most important inorganic compound for living organisms!

Water Basics Polar: part of the molecule is slightly positive… other part slightly negative – Oxygen (-) – Hydrogen (+) Hydrogen Bond: Positive Hydrogen.

Properties of Water Chapter 4, Section 4. Structure of Water: A Polar Molecule  electrons are more likely to be found around the oxygen than the hydrogen.

Water & Solutions

Water’s Special Properties! #1- Ice Floats When water freezes, its structure locks air pockets in. This makes water less dense as a solid than as a liquid. Question: How would our Earth be different if it didn’t float?

Special Property #2 Water absorbs and retains heat. – How does this affect living organisms? – HINT: What is your body temp?

Special Property #3 Water molecules stick to each other. (Cohesion) -Water can stay a liquid at room temp. because it sticks together!

Special Property #4 Water molecules stick to other polar substances. (Adhesion) Fig. 5 on p. 55 – The water is moving up the stem of the plant.

Key Terms: Cohesion- The attraction of particles of the same substance. Adhesion- The attraction of particles of different substances. Solution- A mixture, in which 2 or more parts are evenly dissolved. (Has a solute & solvent.) – Solute- This part dissolves. – Solvent- This part does the dissolving.

Key Terms cont. Acid-Substances that give off H + ions in water. Bases-Substances that give off OH - ions in water. pH- The measure of how acidic or basic a substance is. Buffer- Prevents pH changes in a substance. Look at p. 57
