Water

Water

1. Surface tension

   • Surface tension is a very thin film created on the surface by the hydrogen bonds, where very light things can be on top of just like insects

2. Water density

   • Water is less dense in solid state than in liquid state that is why ice floats on top of water

3. Cohesion

   • It is water´s ability to stick to other water molecules

4. Adhesion

   • It is water´s ability to stick to other substances molecules

5. Hydrogen Bonds

   • Between Hydrogen and Oxigen

6. Water high specific heat

   • Hydrogen bonds contribute in this stribute of water because when they break they release heat when they form minimizing temperature changes.

7. Solubility

   • Hydrophobic
     • Non-polar molecules repel water (not disolving) like oils
       • This two type of molecules react differently with water because they are counterparts
   • Hydrophilic
     • Polar substances are attracted to water (easily dissolving) like salt
