Water striders are insects that can walk on the surface of water. Which property of water allows water striders to move on the surface of a lake?
Cohesion
Capillary action
Surface tension
Adhesion
It measures of how much heat is required to raise the temperature of a substance by a certain amount.
Capillary action
Cohesion
Adhesion
Specific heat capacity
What property of water can relate to this picture?
Cohesion
Density
Adhesion
Solvent
Plants and trees couldn't thrive without water. Water goes up into the roots. With the help of adhesion and cohesion, water can work its way all the way up to the branches and leaves.
This kind of event in plants shows what type of property of water?
Cohesion
Density
Capillary action
Specific heat capacity
What type of bonding shows in the animation?
Ionic Bonding
Metal Bonding
Covalent Bonding
Liquid Bonding
Which of the following is an example of COHESION?
water sticking to water
water sticking to glass
oil sticking to plastic
hydrogen sticking to oxygen
Water in a cup will help prevent the cup from burning up over a flame due to this property of water
high specific heat
capillary action
surface tension
greatest density at 4 oC
Capillary action is when water moves up a thin tube such as the xylem in plants or chromatography paper pulls water upwards against gravity. This phenomena is due to.....
adhesion
cohesion
a combination of adhesion and cohesion
surface tension
Water has good __________ which can be seen when insects and leaves are able to sit on top of water.
synergistic effects
balance
surface tension
photosynthesis
What are the unique properties of water? - choose all that apply.
cohesion
adhesion
specific heat
universal solvent
Metallic bond
How would you use the concept of adhesion and cohesion to explain the movement of water in a thin tube?
Adhesion allows water to stick to the tube's surface, while cohesion pulls more water along
Cohesion allows water to stick to the tube's surface, while adhesion pulls more water along
Both adhesion and cohesion repel water from the tube's surface
Neither adhesion nor cohesion affects water movement in tubes
Capillary Action is key for
Water moving from roots to leaves in plants
Air moving from mouth to lungs
Ice floating on water
