Cohesion & Adhesion

Refer to the picture of water sticking to a leaf; this is occurring because of:

• Adhesion

• Cohesion

Refer to the picture; the water strider can walk over waters surface. This is occurring due to:

• Adhesion

• Cohesion

Refer to the picture; this is occurring because of:

• Adhesion
• Cohesion

Refer to the picture; this is occurring because of:

• Adhesion
• Cohesion

Water is the universal solvent since it's:

• water
• such a small molecule 
• polar
• essential to life

Cohesion and adhesion have this in common:

• Hydrogen bonding
• They create non-polar molecules
• Only relate to water
• Universal solvent

Surface tension is an example of:

• Cohesion
• Adhesion
• H+ bonding & Adhesion
• Cohesion & H+ Bonding

Surface tension is the property of water in which...

• water molecules at the surface tend to stick together.

• water spills easily.

• water tends to be see-through.

Describe COHESION.

• Water molecules attracted to other substances.

• Water molecules climbing upwards against the force of gravity.

• Water molecules dissolving many substances because of its polarity.

• Water molecules attracted to other water molecules.

What two elements make up water?

• Helium and oxygen
• Hydrogen and oxygen
• helium and carbon
• oxygen and carbon
