Which is NOT a property of water?

• Water has a high specific heat capacity

• Water is a polar molecule

• Water molecules cannot bond with other water molecules

• Water is more dense as a liquid than as a solid

Which answer best describes cohesion?

• Water molecules are attracted to other molecules

• Water molecules are polar

• Water molecules are attracted to other water molecules

• Water moves up against gravity in plants

How can a water strider walk on water?

• It doesn't

• It is heavy enough to bend the water

• It uses adhesion to its advantage

• The property of cohesion

What property of water is mostly shown here? (Water droplets)

• High Specific Heat

• Density

• Cohesion

• Universal Solvent

Which atom(s) in a molecule of water is/are partially positive?

• Oxygen

• Carbon

• Nitrogen

• Hydrogen

The atom in water that is partially negative is...

What property of water deals with ice floating?

• Cohesion

• Adhesion

• Density

• Capillary Action

How does ice float?

• As water freezes, the space between molecules expand, decreasing its density

• As water freezes, it takes up more oxygen from the air, increasing its density

• As water freezes, it takes up more hydrogen, increasing its density
