Properties of Water
Water Molecule
• 1 oxygen atom, 2 hydrogen atoms
• The 3 atoms are held together by polar
covalent bonds
• Electrons are not shared equally, they are
closer to the oxygen
• Molecule has a bent shape (looks like Mickey
head)
• 7 Properties of water
1. Polarity
• Polar molecule – a molecule with positive
and negative charged regions
– In water, electrons shared unequally
• Oxygen is more electronegative, giving it a partial
- charge
• Hydrogen atoms get a partial + charge
• This causes the – end of one water
molecule to be attracted to the + end of a
different water molecule
• A hydrogen bond forms between the + oxygen and
– hydrogen on the different molecules
– Each water molecule can form hydrogen bonds with up
to four neighbors.
– Hydrogen bonds are very weak, they break and reform
easily
– But!-They are the basis for the other properties of water

2. Capillary Action
• Capillary Action – the ability water has to flow
upward against the force of gravity, due to
cohesion and adhesion
• Cohesion (cohesive) – sticking together of two like
molecules
– 2 water molecules are cohesive due to the hydrogen
bonds
• Adhesion (adhesive) – sticking together of two
unlike molecules
– Ex: A water molecule being attracted to a sugar
molecule (Like making Kool-aid)

DEMO!
• Take a dry penny.
• Slowly add drops of water to the penny.
• How many drops can you add?
COHESION!!
• Cohesion among water
molecules causes them to
pull one another upward
against gravity
• Adhesion contributes
too, as water adheres
to the wall of the
vessels, so it can travel
upward
How does water get to the top of plants?
Cohesion & Adhesion
DEMO!
• What allowed the coloring in the water to
get to the top of the celery stalk?

3. Surface Tension
• Surface tension- a measure of the force
necessary to stretch or break the surface of a
liquid
– Hydrogen bonds between water molecules at surface
of water resist breaking creating an “invisible film”
– This allows some insects to walk/run on water
Properties of Water pp with activity.ppt
DEMO!
• Take a dry paper clip and carefully try to
lay it on the surface of the water
SURFACE TENSION
4. Heat Capacity
• Specific Heat - amount of heat that must be
absorbed or lost before it actually changes
temperature
– Water has a high specific heat
– Water can absorb or release large amounts of
heat with only a slight change in its own
temperature.
• Ex: Water takes a long time to boil
Practice
2. Which property of
water provides the
cooling effect of
sweating?
a. cohesiveness
b. surface tension
c. high heat of
vaporization
d. high heat capacity
1. Which of the following describes
a hydrogen bond?
a. the bond between two hydrogen
atoms within a molecule of water
b. the bond between hydrogen in
one water molecule and another
hydrogen in a different water
molecule
c. the bond between hydrogen and
oxygen within a molecule of
water
d. the bond between hydrogen in
one water molecule and oxygen in
a different water molecule
Heat Capacity
• Because of this water stabilizes air temperatures
• Cool water absorbs heat from warm air
– Ex: Coastal cities have mild weather
Practice
2. Which property of
water helps to explain
that it takes a bit of time
for a pot of water to
boil?
a. adhesion
b. density
c. specific heat
d. universal solvent
1. Which of the following
is an example of heat
capacity/specific heat?
a. ice floats in water
b. sweating lowers body
temperature.
c. sugar disappears when
added to water.
d. it takes several weeks
of warm temperatures to
raise lake water several
degrees.
5. Heat of Vaporization
• Heat of Vaporization- The cooling of a
surface occurs when the liquid evaporates
– Ex: water boils  as the steam leaves the water
it takes the heat with it, and the water cools
– Ex: Your body sweats so the water will absorb
your heat then evaporate to cool you.
6. Density
• Density- a measure of how compact the
atoms or molecules are within a substance
or how much mass there is in a given space
(volume)
– Water compared to other liquids (like syrup) is
not very dense.
• Water is more dense as a liquid than as a
solid
• When water freezes and becomes ice, the polarity causes
hydrogen bonds to form but there is air in between
– Causes expansion
– Ice floats in water.
• If this didn’t happen all the icebergs would sink- water
levels would rise.
• Ice floats on top and insulates water below- fish can live.
DEMO!
• Ice, water, alcohol….

7. Universal Solvent
• Solvent- a liquid that dissolves a particle
(solute)
• Solute- particle or liquid that gets dissolved
in the solvent
– Ex: Salt water  Water- Solvent, Salt- Solute
• Water is a solvent that dissolves most
solutes.
• If the solute molecules are polar, like water,
the positive ends of water are attracted to
the negative ends of the solute.
• This is also why the
solute is even throughout
all the water
• For each Picture decide which property of
water is being used.
Practice – Write down the number and answer
1. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms are held together by ___
bonds.
2. The electrons are not shared equally creating a __ molecule.
3. The polarity of water allows it to __most substances.
Because of this it is referred to as the __ __.
4. Water molecules stick to other water molecules. This
property is called ___.
5. Hydrogen bonds form between adjacent water molecules
because the __charged hydrogen end of one water molecule
attracts the __ charged oxygen end of another water molecule.
6. Water molecules stick to other materials due to its polar
nature. This property is called __.
7. ___ ___ creates the skin-like surface formed due to the polar
nature of water.
