7.1- Introduction to water review

What makes water a unique liquid?

• Water behaves differently from other liquids due to its polarity. Water expands as a solid, has a neutral pH, and has a high specific heat.

• Water is the only liquid that cannot dissolve any substances.

• Water is always acidic in nature and contracts when frozen.

• Water has a low specific heat and is non-polar.

Label the charges on the water molecule.

Negative

Positive

How are cohesion and adhesion alike and different? (Refer to the Venn diagram)

• Cohesion: water attracted to other water molecules. Adhesion: water attracted to other substances. Both are attractive tendencies.

• Cohesion: water repels other water molecules. Adhesion: water repels other substances. Both are repulsive tendencies.

• Cohesion: water attracted to air molecules. Adhesion: water attracted to oil molecules. Both are non-attractive tendencies.

• Cohesion: water attracted to other substances. Adhesion: water attracted to other water molecules. Both are unrelated tendencies.
