A molecule made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It is essential for life and has unique properties.

The ability of water to move upward through narrow spaces. It happens because of cohesion and adhesion

Water molecules sticking to other water molecules. This creates surface tension.

Water molecules sticking to other surfaces. It helps water climb materials like plant stems.

Water has a positive and negative end, like a magnet. This lets it dissolve many substances.

Moving something from one place to another. Energy, heat, or matter can all be transferred.

The ability to do work or cause change. It exists in many forms like heat, light, or motion.

The layer of gases around Earth. It protects life and helps regulate temperature.

All the water on Earth, including oceans, lakes, rivers, and groundwater.

The long-term weather patterns of a region. It includes temperature, rainfall, and wind.

Heat transfer through the movement of fluids like air or water. Warm materials rise and cool materials sink.

When a liquid turns into a solid. Water freezes at 0°C (32°F).

When a substance breaks apart and mixes evenly into a liquid. The result is a solution.

Specific Heat Capacity

The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a substance. Water has a high specific heat capacity, so it warms slowly.

A state of matter with a fixed shape and volume.

A state of matter with a set volume but no fixed shape.

A state of matter with no fixed shape or volume.

The substance being dissolved in a solution.

The substance that does the dissolving. Water is the most common solvent.

A mixture where the solute is evenly dissolved in the solvent.

The tight “skin” on the surface of water caused by cohesion.

The continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.

A temperature scale starting at absolute zero. It is used mainly in science.

A temperature scale that begins at absolute zero, where no heat energy remains.

A nickname for water because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.

A mixture that is the same throughout, with evenly spread particles.

Examples Of Heterogenous Solutions

Sand and water, oil and water, and cereal in milk.

Water droplets sticking together on a window.

Water sticking to the sides of a glass.

Example Of Surface Tension

An insect standing on top of a pond.

Example Of Capillary Action

Water climbing up a paper towel or up a plant’s stem.
