  1. Functions
    1. Water is used to transport substances- cohesive, liquid and a good solvent
      1. Good temperature controller- has a high specific latent heat and a high specific heat capacity
        1. Water used as a habitiat for organisms
          1. Fish live in it
            1. Polar bears live on top of it as when it freezes its lighter than liquid water
            2. Used in many important metabolic reactions- photosynthesis and hydrolysis reactions
            3. Structure of water
              1. Hydrogen and oxygen joined by sharing electrons
                1. negative electrons from hydrogen pulled closer to oxygen
                    1. oxygen therefore has slight negative charge
                      1. polar molecule=slight positive charge on one side slight negative charge on the other side
                    2. hydrogen left with slight positive charge
                      1. properties of water
                        1. High specific heat capacity
                          1. high specific latent heat
                            1. cohesive
                              1. low density when solid
                                1. good solvent
