Across
  1. 5. compared to more viscous liquids like honey.
  2. 6. -The mass of a substance per unit volume. Water is unique because its solid form (ice) is
  3. 9. water.
  4. 11. -attraction between molecules of the same substance, such as water molecules sticking together.
  5. 13. The ability of ice to act as a barrier that slows down the loss of heat from the water
  6. 15. measure of the acidity or basicity of a solution. Pure water has a pH of 7, making it
  7. 17. Action-The ability of water to flow in narrow spaces against gravity, which occurs due to a
  8. 18. because it can dissolve more substances than any other liquid.
  9. 20. stability-The resistance of a substance, such as water, to changes in temperature, contributing
  10. 22. A substance that is dissolved in a solvent. For example, salt is a solute when dissolved
  11. 23. of vaporization-, which is important in cooling mechanisms like sweating.
  12. 24. attraction between molecules of different substances, such as water molecules sticking to a glass surface.

  1. 1. Heat -The amount of energy required to convert 1 gram of a liquid into a gas. Water has a high
  2. 2. in a solvent, such as saltwater.
  3. 3. it, helping to maintain a stable environment for aquatic life during winter.
  4. 4. dense than its liquid form, allowing ice to float.
  5. 7. solvent-A substance that can dissolve a wide variety of solutes. Water is known as the universal
  6. 8. of cohesive and adhesive forces.
  7. 10. The measure of a fluid's resistance to flow. Water has low viscosity, meaning it flows
  8. 12. heat- The amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance by 1c. Waters high specific heat allows it to stabilize environment temperatures.
  9. 14. -characteristic of a molecule having distinct positive & negative ends, leading to formation of hydrogen bonds in water.
  10. 16. -bond between two molecules, where a hydrogen atom in one molecule is attracted to an electonegative atom in another molecule, common in water molecules.
  11. 19. tension- Tightness on the surface of water caused by the cohesive forces between water molecules, making the surface act like a stretched elastic sheet.
  12. 20. the regulation of climate and body temperature in organisms.
  13. 21. A homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances, where a solute is
