Properties of Water
Universal Solvent
Capillary Action
Because water has both
adhesive and cohesive
properties, capillary action is
present.
Capillary Action = water’s adhesive property is the cause
of capillary action. Water is attracted to some other
material and then through cohesion, other water
molecules move too as a result of the original adhesion.
Ex: Think water in a straw
Ex: Water moves through trees this way
Properties of Water
In order to raise the temperature of
High Heat Capacity
water, the average molecular speed
has to increase.
Density
Water is less dense as a solid! This is because the
hydrogen bonds are stable in ice – each molecule of
water is bound to four of its neighbors.
Solid – water molecules
are bonded together –
space between fixed
Liquid – water molecules
are constantly bonding
and rebonding – space is
always changing
