The properties of water：水特性.pptVIP

The properties of water Life depends on them! Water is polar Polar molecules Molecules are electrically neutral. Portions of a molecule can act as though they have an electrical charge if the components have different attractions for electrons. Polar molecules In water, the oxygen acts negative and the hydrogens act postive. In effect, a water molecule has a positive and a negative pole, or end. As in magnets and ions, opposites attract. Hydrogen bonds Polar molecules with hydrogen atoms are very strongly attracted to the negative regions of other polar molecules. Cohesion Hydrogen bonds for
