1 Water and the Properties of Liquids
Chapter 13

2 Physical States and Changes
Evaporation: particles having enough kinetic energy to break away from the liquid to become a gas Sublimation: change of state from solid directly to a liquid

3 Vapor Pressure Condensation: When a gas returns to a liquid.
Surface Tension: resistance of a liquid to an increase in its surface area Capillary action: spontaneous rising of a liquid in a narrow tube

4 Hydrates Hydrate: solids that contain water in their crystalline structure Anhydrous: lack of water or without water Hygroscopic: anhydrous substances and other substances that readily absorb water out of the atmosphere

5 Meniscus Meniscus concave shape of water’s meniscus show the adhesive forces between glass and water are stronger than the cohesive forces in the water

6 Boiling Point Boiling Point is the temperature at which vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure above the liquid Freezing Point: temperature at which the solid phase of a substance is in equilibrium with its liquid phase

7 Structure of water Water has hydrogen bonding which is a force between molecules that attracts the molecules to each other. The stronger this force the higher the boiling point.
