|---|---|
| Water is made of ____ hydrogen atom(s) and ____ oxygen atom(s). | 2 hydrogen 1 oxygen |
| Water molecules are polar. This means... | water molecules have a positive and negative side -like a magnet. |
| The hydrogen side of a water molecule has a _________________ charge. | positive |
| The oxygen side of a water molecule has a _________________ charge. | negative |
| Adhesion makes water good at... | picking up/grabbing dry polar material -Like dust |
| Adhesion and cohesion makes water travel up the "tubes" in plants, this is called ______________ _______________. | capillary action |
| Cohesion is when ... | water molecules are attracted to each other. |
| Adhesion is when... | water molecules are attracted to other polar material/objects |
| High Specific Heat means... | needing a lot of energy to change temperature |
| Water is called the universal solvent because... | It is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. |
| Water has a high specific heat and this makes water good at... | keeping global temperatures consistent, keeping drinks cold, etc... |
| All things become more dense as they lose energy and cool down | No. Most things do. Water is a rule breaker. It becomes less dense a when it is about to freeze! |
| What property of water makes it a rule breaker? | cohesion |
| Water will slowly break down most materials, even rocks. This is because water is the ... | universal solvent |
| The balloon with a little water in it did not pop when placed over a flame. This demonstrated water's property of ... | high specific heat. |
| Ice floats on liquid water because it is ... | less dense than liquid water ( rule breaker) |
| A stronger cohesive attraction of water molecules along the top area of water is called... | surface tension |

| Precipitation is... | any form of water falling from the sky? |
| Is snow precipitation? | Yes. It is a form of water falling from the sky! |
| What would happen if you put water on a non-polar substance? | it would not adhere. It would roll right off. It would not stick or soak in. |
| Why is water called the universal solvent? A. It can dissolve anything given enough time B. It can dissolve more things than any other liquid C. It can solve universal problems D. It is dissolved by all other substances | B |
