| A | B |
|---|
| Inorganic | Does not contain carbon |
| Organic | Contains carbon (and hydrogen) |
| Polar | Unequal distribution of charge |
| Cohesion | Attraction between like molecules (water to water) |
| Adhesion | Attraction between different molecules (water to something else) |
| Atoms that make water | 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen |
| Solute | Molecule being dissolved or broken apart |
| Solvent | Substance that dissolves another material |
| Solution | Combination of solute and solvent together |
| Acid | pH below 7 |
| Base | pH above 7 |
| Neutral | pH of 7 |
| Density of liquid water | More dense than ice |
| Density of ice | Less dense than liquid water |
| Surface tension | Water molecules on the surface are more tightly attracted to each other than the water molecules below |
| Capillary action | Water will move up narrow tubes due to its adhesion to the sides of the tubes and its cohesion to other water molecules |
| Nonpolar | Molecules with an equal distribution of charge |
| Hydrogen bond | Weak attraction between polar water molecules |
| Density | Mass per unit volume (how compacted) |
| Universal solvent | Water because of its polarity dissolves most polar and ionic compounds |
| Opposite charges | Attract each other |
| Like charges | Repel each other |
| Meniscus | Curved shape of the top of water in a graduated cylinder |
