W
A polar molecule made of 1 oxygen and 2 hydrogen atoms.
What is a Water Molecule?
Having positively & negatively charged areas because of an uneven distribution of electrons.
What is Polarity?
Because H-bonds make water molecules attract each other more strongly. It causes surface tension.
What is Cohesion?
An area with more electrons around the oxygen atom.
What is a Negative Pole?
The ability of water molecules to bond with other molecules.
What is Adhesion?
Because it can easily dissolve glucose, sodium chloride, oxygen, and many amino acids.
What is Water is Good for Transport?
A weak bond formed between polar water molecules.
What is a Hydrogen Bond?
An area with fewer electrons near the hydrogen atom nuclei of water molecules.
What is a Positive Pole?
Because water has a high specific heat...
What is Water is a Good Coolant?
Because polar water molecules dissolve so many substances.
Because some heat is used to break H-bonds so more is needed to raise the temperature.
What is the High Specific Heat Capacity of Water?
Because water molecule contains both positve and negative charges.
What is Dipolarity?
Water has a memory of molecules dissolved in it.
What is Pseudoscience?
Because extra hydrogen bonds cause cold water molecules to move apart slightly.
What is Water Density is Lower as Ice?
