| A | B |
|---|
| polar molecue | water has a positive and negative end which causes it to attract anything (anything can bond to it) |
| universal solvent | water can dissolve almost anything over time |
| cohesion | attraction between molecules that are alike - water uses this force to cling together |
| adhesion | attraction between different things - water uses this force to cling to other material |
| "mickey mouse" | the shape a water molecule makes |
| 70 to 90 percent | amount of most organisms that is water |
| resists change | the behavior of water to attempts to raise or lower it's temperature |
| diffusion | the movement of any particle from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration |
| osmosis | a special case of diffusion that deals only with water |
| concentration, temperature, pressure | factors that affect diffusion - more of each equals faster diffusion |
| dynamic equilibrium | the continuous movement of particles through diffusion that produces NO overall change in concentration |
