Properties of Water
Watch the following video and take notes
Teachers: Watch video once Watch video again and take notes Write notes on board and explain each property Go over power point Have kids edit their notes
Notes Should look like 70% planet; body 70% Structure: forms H bonds with other molecules Universal Solvent Cohesion and Adhesion High Surface Tension High Heat Capacity Changes in Density
Universal Solvent Dissolves many substances Polarity Ex: NaCl in water Chemical rxns=quick
Cohesion and Adhesion Water-water: cohesion transpiration Water-other: adhesion (like tape) Nutrients and waste
High Surface Tension
High Heat Capacity Water absorbs a lot of heat without changing chemical state Homeostasis of organisms Adaptability of organisms
Changes in Density
