Density | How close the particles are in a substance. M/V (mass divided by the volume) |
Surface Tension | The hydrogen bond made skin like film that allows thins like bugs to walk on the surface of the water. |
Polarity | The unequal sharing of electrons. This is the most important property of water. This also leads to the hydrogen bonds. |
