The Nature of Water Sci. 5.1
Water is weird • Is liquid at room temp. (not a gas) • Solid water floats in liquid water • Lots of heat needed to change temp.
H2O NH3 O2 H2S N2 CO2 CH4
Exists on earth in all 3 states (phases) • Solid (ice) • Liquid (water) • Gas (water vapor)
Latent heat of fusion • Energy required for change between liquid and solid • 335 joules per gram (J/g) Heat in Heat out
Melting (freezing) point: • 0° C (32° F) Heat absorbed in J A: Rise in temp. as ice absorbs heat. B: Absorption of latent heat of fusion. C: Rise in temp.as liquid water absorbs heat.
Latent heat of vaporization • Energy required to change between liquid and gas • 2,260 J/g Heat in Heat out
Boiling point: • 100° C (212° F) Amount of heat absorbed in joules A: Rise in temp. as ice absorbs heat. B: Absorption of latent heat of fusion. C: Rise in temp.as liquid water absorbs heat. D: Water boils and absorbs latent heat of vaporization. E: Steam absorbs heat and temp. increases
Sublimation: • Changing directly from solid to gas Dry ice (Solid CO2)
Deposition: • Gas directly to solid
Changing states Heat flowing into or out of water? blah blah Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah solid liquid vapor blah blah Direction of heat flow?
Changing states Heat from environment, into water sublimation melting evaporation freezing condensation solid liquid vapor deposition Heat out of water, into environment
Molecular structure of H2O • a polar molecule • O end –charge, H ends +charges
H (hydrogen) bonds • Weak bonds between H on one molecule and O of another (can form between other compounds too) • Makes water “sticky” (liquid at room temp.)
Cohesion: • H2O molecules sticking to each other
Adhesion: • H2O sticking to other things
Density: (generally) • Amount of mass per volume • As temp. , density
Density differences in oceans • Can cause major currents • less dense = more buoyant salinity differences temp. differences
H2O called “the universal solvent” (not everything) • lots of things dissolve in H2O
Ice • Molecules take up more room (solid floats) • Because of H bonds Liquid Ice (2 layers of molecules)
most dense least dense
It’s possible to melt ice by increasing the pressure on it without increasing temperature ice 28°F Thin layer of liquid water
Specific Heat (a.k.a. Heat Capacity): • Energy needed to raise temp. 1°C • The amount of heat • a substance can hold.
