The Properties of WaterThe Properties of Water
I. StructureA. Water is one oxygen atom
bonded to two hydrogen atoms. H2O is the formula.
B. Each end of the molecule has a slight electrical charge.
1. The oxygen end has a slight negative charge and the hydrogen end is slightly positive.
2. Molecules with a charge are considered polar molecules.

bonded to two hydrogen atoms. H2O is the formula.
B. Each end of the molecule has a slight electrical charge.
1. The oxygen end has a slight negative charge and the hydrogen end is slightly positive.
2. Molecules with a charge are considered polar molecules.

III. Capillary ActionA. The attraction of water molecules
to other surrounding materials.B. This allows water to “cling to” and
“climb” up materials.

IV. Water, the Universal SolventA. Solution
1. A mixture that forms when one substance dissolves another.
2. The solvent is the substance doing the dissolving. Water is the solvent.
B. Water dissolves substances by the positive and negative charges attracting the positive and negative charges of the substance and tearing it apart.

C. Water dissolves other polar substances.1. Solids - soap, salt2. Liquids - bleach, alcohol3. Gases - oxygen, CO2
D. Water cannot dissolve non-polar substances (those without charges).1. Wax2. Oil

V. Changing StateA. Water is the only substance on Earth that commonly exists in all three states, solid, liquid, and gas.B. Melting - solid to liquid
Freezing - liquid to solidC. Boiling - liquid to gas
Evaporation - liquid to gas only at the surface of the liquid Condensation - gas to liquid

VI. Ice FloatsA. Ice is less dense than water.B. Density is how tightly packed together the molecules are.C. When water freezes, the molecules move slightly farther apart, making ice less dense. D. Less dense things float.

VII. Specific HeatA. The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a certain mass of a substance by 1º C.B. Water has a high specific heat. It takes a lot of heat to raise the temperature of water.C. This is why the oceans are still cold in June and yet are warm in September.
