Paper towel Why is paper towel able to absorb so much water? Water adheres to the paper towel due to its polarity In your group, cut your piece of paper towel into 4 strips (long ways) USE PENCIL (NO pen or marker) and writer your name at the top of one strip Color the rest with the markers anyway you wish

Physical Properties of Water

* Water statistics Covers 75% of Earth’s surface (why understanding it is important!) Covers 75% of Earth’s surface 97% oceans 3% freshwater 2% (of Total) in ice caps and glaciers 1% in lakes, underground, or in atmosphere (usable by humans) Makes up 70% of the human body 92% of blood plasma 80% of muscle tissues 60% of red blood cells

Physical properties Water: Is clear, colorless, odorless, and tasteless * Colors, tastes and odors are caused by substances dissolved in the water. Boils at 100°C Freezes at 0°C Density = 1.0 g/mL (at 4°C) Water is a Polar Molecule

Polarity of Water In a water molecule two hydrogen atoms form single polar covalent bonds with an oxygen atom. Gives water more structure than other liquids Because oxygen is more electronegative, the region around oxygen has a partial negative charge. 2 corners are orbitals with unshared electrons and a weak negative charge 2 are occupied by hydrogen atoms that have polar covalent bonds

Water has a variety of unusual properties because of attractions between these polar molecules. The slightly negative regions of one molecule are attracted to the slightly positive regions of nearby molecules, forming a hydrogen bond. Each water molecule can form hydrogen bonds with up to four neighbors. The region near the two hydrogen atoms has a partial positive charge. A water molecule is a polar molecule with opposite ends of the molecule with opposite charges. Fig. 3.1 Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

HYDROGEN BONDS Extraordinary Properties that are a result of hydrogen bonds. Cohesive behavior Resists changes in temperature High heat of vaporization Expands when it freezes Versatile solvent Hold water molecules together Each water molecule can form a maximum of 4 hydrogen bonds The hydrogen bonds joining water molecules are weak, about 1/20th as strong as covalent bonds. They form, break, and reform with great frequency

Freezing Density of ice (at 0°C) is 0.917 g/mL, so ice floats in water. Most liquids become more dense as you cool them. However, when water freezes, a large expansion occurs. http://www.anglianwater.co.uk/schools/noscript/f1.htm * Where have you see H2O in repeating hexagonal patterns before? http://kingfish.coastal.edu/biology/sgilman/770lecwatersalt.htm Water “organizing” with H bonds as it freezes. Forms hexagon shapes.

So ice is able to float (just barely)

Main Properties of Water Polarity Leads to Cohesion and Adhesion Cohesion = water molecules “stick” to each other Adhesion = water molecules “stick” to other substances

Adhesion The adhesion of water leads to two other important properties: Water as a “universal” solvent Water only dissolves polar molecules Capillary action

Universal Solvent Solvent – a substance that dissolves another substance What dissolves in water? Salt Sugar Carbon Dioxide Oxygen Magic Marker (Paper towel demo) MANY more! For an object to dissolve in water it must also be a polar molecule! This is why oil and water do not mix, oil is NON polar

Capillary Action Capillary action = Water is able to “climb” objects against the forces of gravity Think of the (+) and (-) ends of a water molecule acting like suction cups, and a water molecule is using them to climb up a glass building Just like in the Paper Towel Demo

Cohesion The cohesion of water molecules leads to two other important properties: Surface Tension – the attraction between water molecules at the surface of the liquid High Specific Heat – it takes a lot of energy to warm up water and it takes a very long time for warm water to cool off

 Surface Tension Resistance of a liquid to an increase in surface area because H bonds in H2O Ex: floating a paper clip, “water striders”, water beading on waxed car Air Water http://wine1.sb.fsu.edu/chm1045/notes/Forces/Liquids/Forces03.htm

Water resists temperature change, both for heating and cooling. High Specific Heat Water resists temperature change, both for heating and cooling. Water can absorb or release large amounts of heat energy with little change in actual temperature. At the beach, why is the sand hotter than water at noon but cooler than water at midnight? 1

“Water vapor forms a kind of global ‘blanket’ which helps to keep the earth warm. Heat radiated from the sun-warmed surface of the earth is absorbed and held by the vapor.” http://www.ec.gc.ca/water/index.htm 1

Discussion Questions Which property of water causes the cracks in the pavement in cold climates? Why does a meniscus form on the surface of the water in a graduated cylinder? What would happen to fish in cooler climates if the relative densities of ice and liquid water were reversed? What property of water best describes the ability of water to clean our clothes?
