HOW TO PASS THE SCIENCE EOG!!!! WATER Water is the UNIVERSAL SOLVENT. What does this mean? Water is a solvent, the stuff that dissolves is the _______________. Give 2 examples of things that dissolve: _______________ is when H2O molecules stick to other H2O molecules. (Like when water beads on your new car or when condensation makes bigger and bigger water drops before it rains.) __________________ is when H2O molecules stick to other stuff. (Like to a washcloth or inside a graduated cylinder) H2O is a polar molecule. What does that mean? (Like EARTH with a N S POLE….both the H2O molecule and Earth act like MAGNETS with positive and negative sides. This also explains cohesion and adhesion too.) ICE SWELLS (When H2O molecules freeze they strangely get farther apart because there is air between the molecules!) The MORE DENSITY, the CLOSER its MOLECULES are to each other. What is the formula for density? (Remember your units are g/cm3) DENSER STUFF SINKS (Afterall, it’s not the size of the molecule, but how close molecules are together=mass per volume. Does solid water or liquid water have more density??_______________________________Why? _________________________________________________________________________________) DENSER = GREATER BUOYANT FORCE (If something SINKS, it’s floating/pushing up more things above.) LASAGNA and WATER have HIGH SPECIFIC HEAT (These HOLD ONTO their heat, while McDonald’s fries and aluminum foil have LOW specific heat—they heat up and cool down really fast. It stays warm at the beach during the winter because WATER still holds onto its summer heat--___________specific heat; GLASS and SAND cool down quickly, they have __________ specific heat.) MOST FRESHWATER on earth is SOLID ICE (Where do we find this frozen FRESH water? ___________________________________) MOST DRINKING WATER comes from the GROUND! Dig a well and see! How do we kill germs in our drinking water? ________________________
