• Oxygen

• Hydrogen

Tags

NGSS.MS-PS1-1

Water is called - because the two sides are oppositely charged

• opposite

• magnetic

• polar

• binary

• nonpolar

NGSS.MS-PS2-3

The bonds that form between neighboring water molecules are called:

• covalent

• ionic

• peptide

• hydrogen

The property of water where water is attracted to itself is called:

• adhesion

• cohesion

• capillary action

• surface tension

The property of water where water is attracted to other things is called:

• adhesion

• cohesion

• capillary action

• surface tension

The property of water where water forms a "skin" that can support small amounts of weight :

• adhesion

• cohesion

• capillary action

• surface tension

The property of water where water can travel upwards in thin tubes:

• adhesion

• cohesion

• capillary action

• surface tension

This property of water helps to regulate (control) temperature

• high heat capacity

• expands when freezes

• good solvent

• capillary action
