4 Properties of Water- earth suitable for life
1. Cohesion

2. Moderation of temperature


3. Expansion upon freezing


4. Versatility as a solvent

binds a substance together
Cohesion

Contributes to transport of


H2O & dissolved nutrients


against gravity in plants


Cohesion

Clinging of one substance to another




Water adheres to walls of the cells,


countering the downward pull of gravity

Adhesion

Measure of how difficult it is stretch or break


the surface of a liquid


Behaves like an invisible film

Surface Tension

total amount of kinetic energy due to

molecular motion in a body of matter


depends on volume

Heat
measures the intensity of heat due to

the average kinetic energy of molecules

Temperature
amount of heat it takes to raise the

temp of 1 g of water by 1 °C

Calorie(cal)

1,000 cal, quantity of heat required


to raise the temp of 1 kg of water by 1 °C


Calories on food packages – actually kcals

Kilocalorie (kcal)
amt of heat that must be absorbed or lost for 1 g of that substance to change its temp by 1 °C
Specific heat
amount of heat that causes 1 g of water to change its temp by 1 °C

cal

1 cal / g / °C
Water specific heat
Why is H2O specific heat so high?
H-bonding!!!!

Heat absorbed - break H-bonds


Heat released - forms H-bonds

Quantity of heat a liquid must absorb for 1 g of it to be converted from the liquid to gas state
Heat of Vaporization
liquid that is completely homogeneous mixture of 2 or more substances
Solution
dissolving agent (water)
Solvent
substance that is dissolved (salt)
Solute
water is solvent
Aqueous solution
Nonionic polar molecules
sugar molecules
each individual atom has a charge
Ionic compound
charge difference throughout the molecule
Polar molecule
any substance with attraction to water (charges)


--Ionic or polar substances


--Dissolve in water

Hydrophilic
stable suspension of fine particles in a liquid
Colloid
Nonionic & nonpolar substances repel water
Hydrophobic
Charged molecules attracted to charged

molecules

--Hydrophilic molecules

--Ionic substances


--Polar molecules- polar covalent bond

Uncharged molecules attracted to uncharged molecules
--Hydrophobic molecules

--Nonpolar molecules- nonpolar bonds


--NO charge

"Like dissolves like"
Polar substances WILL dissolve in Polar

substances


Non-polar substances WILL dissolve in


nonpolar substances


Non-polar substances WILL NOT dissolve in


polar substances.
