water

The chemical compound of water is

• HO
• H₂O
• H₃O
• HO₂

Water is a universal solvent

• True
• False

A Compound that is being dissolved is called a

• Solution
• Solute
• Solvent
• Suspension

A solvent is...

• substance into which the solute dissolves
• a compound being dissolved
• a substance that does not dissolve
• None of the above

A water strider can skate along the top of a pond because:

• covalent bonds result in water cohesion
• hydrogen bonds result in water cohesion (surface tension)
• water striders have adapted to take advantage of water cohesion
• low surface tension of water

Why can water have no net charge but have slight charges in different parts of the molecule?

• The oxygen end is slightly negative and the hydrogen end is slightly positive
• The hydrogen end is slightly negative and the oxygen end is slightly positive
• The hydrogen and oxygen ends change in polarity
• Because it is hydrophobic

Attractions between water molecules are called

• Covalent bonds
• Ionic bonds
• Polar bonds
• Hydrogen bonds

Water is a universal solvent because it...

• It can be found anywhere
• It freezes when it gets cold
• floats when frozen
• Dissolves most substances

Acids have more what? 

• OH ions 
• OH- ions
• H+ ions 
• All of the above 

What word describes when water is attracted to other substances?

• cohesion
• adhesion
• capillary action
• surface tension
