Water is Life
100

This substance takes up space and has mass.

Matter

100

Its a subatomic particle with a negative charge.

Electron

100

What property makes something sink or float?

Density

100

This is the strongest bond in living things.

Covalent

100

Water temperatures don't change quickly. The property that accounts for this is its high....

Specific Heat

200

This substance cannot be broken down by chemical reactions.

Element

200

The mass number of an element is the sum of these two parts.

Protons + Neutrons

200

He designed the model of an element that includes the valence shell.

Bohr

200

This bond forms between a cation and an anion.

Ionic

200

This word describes water's partial charges on the opposite ends of the molecule.

Polar

300

Humans need 19 of these to survive.

Essential element

300

The atomic number tells us the number of this subatomic particle.

Protons

300

This force allows geckos to stick to walls.

Van der Waals interactions

300

When two valence electrons are shared it's called this.

Double covalent bond.

300

This term describes something that does not interact well with water and will not combine with it.

Hydrophobic

400

This element makes up 65% of human body weight.

Oxygen

400

The atomic number of hydrogen is 1. The mass of hydrogen is 1. How many neutrons does hydrogen have?

Zero

400

An isotope has the same number of protons but a different number of these compared to its elemental equivalent.

Neutrons

400

In a hydrogen bond, the hydrogen has this partial charge.

Partial positive

400

They may be weak but they account for much of water's super powers.

Hydrogen bonds

500

A subatomic particle with no charge.

Neutron

500

Its the name of a subatomic particle found in the outermost shell.

Valance electron

500

In a periodic table, columns all have the same number of these.

Valence electrons

500

This form of a covalent bond involves partially charged atoms.

Polar covalent bond.

500
It's the attraction between a water molecule and another substance.
