Across
  1. 3. the ratio of water vapor to “dry air plus water vapor” in a particular volume.
  2. 6. the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water vapor the air can hold at a certain temperature
  3. 11. a uniform mixture of two or more substances
  4. 12. water in the form of droplets that appears on objects, such as grass in the morning or evening
  5. 15. frozen dew
  6. 17. includes the water that transpires from plants and evaporates from soil.
  7. 20. water that falls to the oceans and land, some is absorbed by plants, and runoff forms rivers, streams, and lakes
  8. 21. form as water vapor condenses into tiny droplets or frozen crystals
  9. 22. the process by which water leaves the surface of the earth and becomes water vapor
  10. 25. What gives a plant rigidity and shape
  11. 26. is similar to a cloud, but it is in contact with the ground
  12. 27. the change in matter of a substance to a denser phase.
  13. 28. the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor in the mixture to the saturated vapor pressure of water at a given temperature
  14. 29. the ability of molecules of one substance to adhere to a different substance
Down
  1. 1. the amount of water in a volume of air
  2. 2. Water absorbed by plants is lost to the atmosphere
  3. 4. the forms of water that fall from the sky
  4. 5. limpness to the plant tissue
  5. 7. a form of evaporation in which water vaporizes from ice without becoming water first.
  6. 8. nearly everything will dissolve in it
  7. 9. The temperature at which water droplets form
  8. 10. Water molecules stick together because of the hydrogen bonds
  9. 13. large underground reserves of water
  10. 14. movement of materials through water
  11. 16. usually present in the greatest amount; what dissolves the solute
  12. 18. present in a lesser amount; what gets dissolved by the solvent
  13. 19. the artificial application of water
  14. 23. The exchange of water between earth and its atmosphere
  15. 24. water found in pores, cracks, and openings in soil and rock, which can be extracted through wells
