water

-polar molecule
-polar colvalent bonds
-oxygen end is partial negative and the hydrogens have a partially positive end
-cohesive

polar covalent bonds

-opposite ends of the molecule have opposite charges

cohesion

-H bonding between H2O creates it (sticky)
-allows for the movement of water against gravity
-high surface tension
-water moves up a tree by transpiration (helped by ____)

adhesion

-H2O molecules form H bonds with other substances
~capillary action
~meniscus
~water climbs up fiber

solvent

-water is the universal one
-polar water molecules will surround the (+) and (-) ions causing the ions to separate and dissolve
-dissolve solutes and create aqueous solutions

-ex: cotton, cellulose, paper

hydrophobic

-some substances do not have an affinity for water
-nonpolar and non ionic substances

~seasonal turnover of lakes

specific heat

-the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for 1g to change its temperature by 1C

-each unit represents a 10-fold difference in H+ and -OH concentrations

neutral

-If concentration of 2 ions is equal

carbon

-all life mostly based on this element
-important due to its electron configuration
~able to make 4 stable covalent bonds (tetra valence)
~very versatile
-tetravalence allows them to be strung together in chains

hydrocarbons

-combinations of C and H
-nonpolar
