They are one-twentieth as strong as a covalent bond and constantly form and break
What are Hydrogen Bonds
Adhesion removes this from the water allowing it to slide along the other molecules
What is friction
It stems directly from how the hydrogen bond is structured
What is Heat Capacity
This is the charge of the water molecules
What is Polar
A physical state that water is less dense than liquid in
What is a solid
It allows for denser objects to float on water
What is Surface Tension
Adhesion causes water to stick to ____
Other non water molecules
Temperature measures the average _____ of molecules
Kinetic Energy
These are what water blocks in to dissolve salts like Sodium Chloride (NaCL)
What are Ions
This is a property of water that occurs when freezing due to hydrogen bonding
What is water expansion
It is the only liquid with a higher surface tension than water
What is Mercury
The process of water climbing up surfaces
What is Capillary Action
Hydrogen Bonds release energy in the form of _____
Heat
One of the things that water repels rather than dissolving
What are Oils
The state in which water is the least dense
What is a Gas
It is a community of micro-organisms adapted to living on the surface film of water.
What is the Neuston
In a beaker or tube this is the bottom of the curve in the water
What is the Meniscus
Water has a very ___ temperatuer
Stable
δ+ and δ- are the symbols for ____ and ____
Positive, Negative
If ice sank lots of it would never melt because _____ wouldn't make it that deep
Sunlight
This is a bug that floats and walks across the water due to surface tension
What is a Water Strider
These are the tubes that the water sticks to when being drunk by a plant
What are Xylem Vessels
when this occurs it happens very gradually and seasonally in water
Fluctuaions in Water Temperature
The charge of oils and why they are so hard to break down
What is Nonpolar
A state that water molecules are locked into when they reach 0 °C
Crystalline Lattice
