water Correct answer--polar molecule
-polar colvalent bonds
-oxygen end is partial negative and the hydrogens have a partially positive end
-cohesive
polar covalent bonds Correct answer--opposite ends of the molecule have opposite
charges
cohesion Correct answer--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 Correct answer--H2O molecules form H bonds with other substances
~capillary action
~meniscus
~water climbs up fiber
solvent Correct answer--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
hydrophilic Correct answer--some molecules have an affinity for water
-polar and ionic molecules
-ex: cotton, cellulose, paper
hydrophobic Correct answer--some substances do not have an affinity for water
-nonpolar and non ionic substances
-ex: fat, glycerol, oils
floats Correct answer--less dense when it is solid, water ______
-forms crystal lattice structure
-important because oceans and lakes do not freeze solid
~insulates water below
~seasonal turnover of lakes
specific heat Correct answer--the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for 1g to
change its temperature by 1C
-water had high _____ due to H bonding
-resists change in temp
-moderates temp on earth

evaporative cooling Correct answer--organisms use to regulate their temperature
-ex: sweating
-water evaporates through a surface, cooling occurs
acidic Correct answer-If [H+]>[-OH]
basic Correct answer-If [-OH]>[H+]
pH scale Correct answer--how acidic or basic a solution is
-pure water, only 1 molecule in every 554 million is dissociated
-most biological fluids have 6-8
-each unit represents a 10-fold difference in H+ and -OH concentrations
neutral Correct answer--If concentration of 2 ions is equal
carbon Correct answer--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
