Adhesion- When a substance sticks to another surface. Comparison: When you get out of a pool and the water sticks to your body or your towel.
Capillary action- This is when a liquid is in touch with a solid and rises in a tube. Comparison: Before you decide to go swimming, and take the temperature of the pool either the thermometer goes up or down.
Cohesion- Is when a substance sticks to the same substance. Comparison: When the pool is filled with water.
Hydrogen bond- Forms when the water is polar. Comparison: When you jump in the water it warms up fast.
Polarity- Properties of a molecule that different charges and are not balanced. Comparison: The water would need polarity to heat up the water.
Significance of Water’s density- The thickness or compactness of water. Comparison: How we can’t run very fast in a pool.
Significance of Water’s Specific Heat- Uses calories to raise the temperature of one gram. comparison: The water in the pool starts to heat up.
Surface Tension- Properties of a liquid towards a small space of the water where there is an unequal force. Comparison: When a floatation devise stays on top of the water.
Universal Solvent- It dissolves anything Comparison: When you put chlorine blocks into the pool they dissolve.
Water Cycle- The process of water through land to air Comparison: Water can evaporate from the pool and rain fills the pool.
Fun facts- • A healthy person can drink about three gallons (48 cups) of water per day. • Water intoxication is most likely to occur during periods of intense athletic performance. • Much more fresh water is stored under the ground in aquifers than on the earth’s surface. • The average person in the United States uses anywhere from 80-100 gallons of water per day. Flushing the toilet actually takes up the largest amount of this water. • The weight a person loses directly after intense physical activity is weight from water, not fat.
