Properties of Water

Water is a ______________ molecule, meaning the positive hydrogen end of one water molecule attracts the negative oxygen ends of another

• Bi-Polar

• Cohesive

• Polar

• Adhesive

•– molecules on surface of water cause a tightness, almost giving water a “skin”.

• Adhesive

• Cohesive

• Universal Solvent

• Surface Tension

•water is known as the universal solvent because many substances dissolve it in.

• Adhesive

• Cohesive

• Universal Solvent

• Surface Tension

Water Molecules Stick to Each other

• Adhesive

• Cohesive

• Universal Solvent

• Surface Tension

Water Molecules Stick to other things

• Adhesive

• Cohesive

• Universal Solvent

• Surface Tension

When Water turns to a solid

• It Sinks

• It FLoats

• It Completely Freezes over a Lake

• It shrinks

When it comes to heat capactiy

• Water takes a long time to heat up

• Water takes a short time to heat up

• Water heats up the same as the sand on the beach

• Its hard to tell how fast or slow water heats up

Water is the universal solvent. This means that

• It can dissolve a lot of things

• It cannot dissolve a lot of things

• It dissolves as much as acids

• It dissolves as much as bases

Water is a polar molecule so

• Hydrogen is on the + end and Oxygen is on the - end

• Oxygen is on the + end and Hydrogen is on the - end

• Both Hydrogen and Oxygen is on the positive end

• You can not tell which one is positive and which is negative.

If you put a glass bottle of water in the freezer what will happen

• The water will expand as it freezes and shatter the glass.

• Water will freeze and the glass will be fine

• Water will freeze and shrink

• Water will not freeze and glass will be fine.
