Water is a molecule made up of two hydrogen
atoms and one oxygen atom. It has the formula
H2O. When oxygen and hydrogen combine (H-O-H)
they form a v-shaped triangular molecule. While
water molecules are electrically neutral, the
oxygen atom holds a small negative charge and the
two hydrogen atoms hold small positive charges.
Water molecules are attracted to each other,
creating hydrogen bonds. These bonds determine
almost every physical property of water and many
of its chemical properties too. Scientists believe
this unusual electrical balancing, called polarity,
gives water some of its remarkable properties

Water Physical Properties (review)
•At what temperature in Celsius does water
start boiling?
•At what temperature in Celsius does water
start melting?
•At what temperature in Celsius does water
start freezing?
•What is the density of water?
Water has a high specific heat capacity
• Water has the ability to absorb a lot of heat with a
relatively small increase in temperature
• Water has one of the highest specific heat capacity
This allows marine organisms to avoid drastic
temperature fluctuations in the seawater.
This allows orchards grown on the coast to
survive hot summers and severe winters.

If matter expands when heated,
and contracts when cooled, why
does ice expand (increase in
volume) when water freezes?
When water freezes, it goes from a mixed up liquid
state where all these V's are just sliding around
each other, to an ordered crystalline solid state
where all the V's have to connect with each other
in nice orderly solid shapes.
The closest and easiest solid crystal shape for something that exists
as a 104.5 degree V is a hexagonal (really tetrahedral in 3D) crystal.
Think of it as a flat hexagonal snowflake shape, but it really goes in
three dimensions. The water molecules want to do this because to
them it "feels" nicer--that is: they feel less strain and they can get
into a lower energy state by getting into this nice orderly
hexagonal crystal.

Critical Thinking:
If ice were more dense than liquid water, how
would this impact the survival of the marine
life?
(The floating layer of ice insulates the liquid
water below, so that it wouldn’t freeze – this
makes the ocean environment to easier to live
in)
•As we know – water is neutral
(equal number of e- & p+ = zero Net Charge)
•But because the O atom is more
electronegative than the H atoms – electrons
spend more of their time nearer the oxygen.
(O atom attracts more than its “fair” share”
of electrons).
•This gives water a slight overall charge.
The oxygen end “acts” negative.
The hydrogen end “acts” positive.
•This charge is called polarity
Oxygen “pulls” closer to it creating
positive and negative sides of the
polar molecule.
•What is electronegativity?
•How does it change across a period?
•Down a group?
•What is the most electronegative element on
the PT?
•Least electronegative?
•Which of the two elements, S or N, has a
greater ability to attract another atom’s
valence electrons?
I am more electronegative than selenium, but
less electronegative than chlorine?
Who am I?

•Water can dissolve more substances than any
other solvent.
•Give examples of substances that water can
dissolve.
•The dissolving power of water is very important
for life on Earth. Wherever water goes, it carries
dissolved chemicals, minerals, and nutrients that
are used to support living things.

“Like dissolves like”
(due to its polarity)
•Polarity really does allow bonding
•They are hydrogen bonds and they
are weak
•They last for fractions of a second
•Continuously break and reform

Cohesion
Adhesion
Cohesion
(water is sticky)
Attraction between particles of the same
substance ( why water is attracted to itself)
•Results in Surface tension (a measure of the
strength of water’s surface)
Produces a surface film on water that allows
insects to walk on the surface of water
•Inside a drop of water polar water molecules
attract to each other in a random fashion
•At the surface of the drop, water does not
attract to the air
•A unified layer of molecules at the surface
creates surface tension
There the water behaves like an flexible sheet
allowing denser objects to “sit” on the
surface.
Surface Tension
• Can be seen as water
droplets form
• Helps insects walk across
water
Surface tension
(cohesion)
•Attraction between two different
substances.
•Water will form hydrogen bonds with
other surfaces such as glass, soil, plant
tissues, and cotton
•Adhesion Causes Capillary Action, which
gives water the ability to “climb”
structures.
* Can be seen as water droplets
form on the spider web
(another polar surface)
Form spheres & hold onto
plant leaves

* We know that gravity is ALWAYS pulling on objects with
mass
* Yet water can move up a paper towel with relative ease
– How can this happen?
* Because the positive and negative charges in the paper
attract the polar water molecules (adhesion)
* This property of adhesion is called capillary action.
