Water properties
2
Capillary Action/Capillarity
WATER PROPERTIES Inorganic Universal Solvent Molecule Density Polarity Surface Tension pH Capillary Action/Capillarity Cohesion Adhesion
3
inorganic = Molecule that does not contain carbon
4
molecule = Simplest structure composed of elements to make a compound
(when two or more elements “stick” together) Hydrogen hydrogen + oxygen = H20
5
Polarity =Molecule with both positive and negative charges - unequal
6
pH = Measure of H+ ions there are
7
cohesion = When one water droplet is “attracted” to another
8
adhesion = When water sticks to other surfaces
9
Capillary action = Allows water and dissolved substances to move throughout an organism against gravity needs the help of cohesion and adhesion
10
Surface tension = Water clumps together in drops instead of lining up next to one another
11
density = Mass per unit volume
Water expands when frozen which causes it to be less dense & float
12
Universal solvent = Dissolves more substances than any other liquid because of polarity (charges)
13
Exit ticket Write one property of water and an example
