41
What are 4 reasons why water is important?
1. Water makes up a bulk organisms 2. Water acts as nature's cooling system 3. Universal Solvent 4. Because of water and photosynthesis we have oxygen in our air.
42
Why is water the universal solvent
any substance can dissolve into it
43
What is solute?
substance dissolved (sugar, salt)
44
Three electronic properties of water
1. Cohesion. 2. Adhesion, 3. Capiliarity
45
Physical Property of water
Surface tenison
46
Tendecy of like molecules to cling together
Cohesion
47
What does photsynthesis do?
breaks down water molecules releases oxygen into atomosphere.
48
Tendency of unlike molecules to cling together
Adhesion
49
Cohesion+ Adhesion tendency of a liquid substance to move upwards agaisnt the pull of gravity.
Capililarity ex: going up a tree Starws
50
Items can float on top of water, tendency of molecules at the surface of water to cohere to each other and not the air. (why water stays on the ground)
Surface tenison
51
Definition of hydrophyllic
Dissolves in water, loves water
52
Definition of hydrophobic
Not dissolve in water, floats EX: oil.
53
What is P.H made up of?
Blood and water
54
Lower number P.H...
