WATER (H20) WORKSHEET

Directions: Answer the following questions using the Water Notes provided.

1. What is the formula for water? _________________

2. Polar molecules are molecules with a slightly _________________ end and a slightly _____________________end.

3. The oxygen end of a water molecule has a partial _________________charge while the hydrogen end has a partial ____________________ charge.

4. The ____________________ sharing of electron causes a water molecule to be polar.

5. Does the fact water is polar affect the way it acts in solutions, Yes or No? Explain. ________________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________________

6. What happens when ionic compounds dissolve in water? ____________________

_________________________________________________________________

7. The negative end of water molecules is attracted to the _________________ions while the positive end of water molecules is attracted to _____________________ ions.

8. When sodium chloride (NaCl) dissolves in water, it breaks up into _____________ ions and ________________ ions.

9. The negative end of water molecules is attracted to ___________________ ions and the positive end of water molecules is attracted to __________________ ions.

10. Because water molecules are polar, they tend to stick to other polar substances. This property is called _____________________. This is why water droplets stick to windows.

11. _______________________ is the tendency of water molecules to stick together. This happens because the positive end of one water molecule attracts the _____________________ end of another.

12. ______________________ is the resistance of a liquid to flow.

13. Which is more viscous, water or syrup? __________________

14. Water’s ____________________________ makes water more viscous than it would be if it were composed of nonpolar molecules.

15. The ___________________nature of water causes ice to float.

16. When water freezes, the molecules spread slightly apart. The ice floats because ice is ____________________ dense than water.

17. The orderly arrangement, or crystalline structure, of ice keeps the molecules from doing what?

18. In what direction do lakes freeze? _____________________________________.

19. Why can organisms survive when a lake freezes over?______________________

_________________________________________________________________

20. Only water that contains ____________________________ can conduct electricity.

21. Substances that can conduct an electric current when they are dissolved in water are called ________________________________.

22. The ________________________ of ions in a water solution determines how much electric current the solution can conduct.

23. The higher the concentration of a ions in solution, the __________ current the solution can carry.

24. _____________________ is very soluble in water, so the concentration of ions in the solution is high.

25. Lead II Chloride is only slightly soluble in water, so the concentration of ions in the solution is ___________________.
