- 3What property? Hydrogen bonds are made allowing water molecules to cling to each other.Cohesion
- 4What property? Water molecules are attracted to polar surfaces /objects.Adhesion
- 5What property? The combined action of adhesion and cohesion that allows water to be pulled into a paper towel or flow up the xylem of a plant to its leaves.Capillary Action
- 6What property? Some small insects can walk across the surface of water. This is caused by more hydrogen bonds among the water molecules at the surface. The water does not try to bond with the air, so their cohesive bond is stronger.Surface Tension
- 7What property? Water can absorb a lot of energy before it changes temperature.High Specific Heat Capacity
- 8What property? Water requires a lot of heat to change its state to vapor.High Heat of Vaporization
