As Matter of Fact
Water's three states of matter
What are Liquid, Gas (steam), and Ice.
The number of steps in the scientific method
What is 7?
Water is different than most other liquids when it freezes because...
What is "it becomes less dense" or "it expands" or "ice floats"?
Mentioned more than faith, hope, prayer and love in the Bible
What is water?
Surfactants break this
What is surface tension?
Water turns into solid (freezes) at this temperature
What is 32 degrees F (or 0* C)?
This is the first step of the scientific method
What is Observation?
Which is more dense liquid water or oil?
An experiment we did which demonstrated capillary action
What is the marker and paper towel experiment. (or a straw in water)
An example of an experiment we did which demonstrated surface tension
What is: the screen experiment, the water on a penny/wax paper, over filling a water cup...
"By the breath of God ____ is given, and the broad waters are frozen fast." Job 37:10
What is Ice?
This step involves making our best guess of what will happen in our experiment.
What is Hypothosis? (Step 4)
Which is less dense fresh water or salt water?
An experiment we did that demonstrated the cohesion of water
What is the two stacked cups of dyed water
What would happen in our bodies if our blood had a higher viscosity (if it was thicker)
What is our hearts would not be powerful enough to pump our blood through our veins?
A type of physical weathering where water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, and expands to break the rock apart
In this step of the scientific method, we consider what we already know about the subject.
What is Background Research?
Any part of this answer would suffice: If the ice sank instead of floating, animal and plant life would die in the lakes and the lakes would freeze solid.
The natural "sticky-ness" that water molecules have for each other
What is Cohesion?
An example of a surfactant
What is Soap? (or Cumin, Cayenne, Paprika...)
What is 212* F or 100* C?
The final step of the scientific method
What is Communicate? (Or explain it so others can understand)
Trees use this property of water to defy gravity and suck water up into their trunks
What is Capillary Action? (and also Cohesion)
The bond between the positively charged hydrogen of one water molecule and the negatively charged oxygen of a neighboring water molecule
What is a Hydrogen Bond?
Stronger cohesion at the surface of water that causes it to act like a thin, stretchy "skin"
What is surface tension?
