Buoyancy

The ability for solids to float on water if their overall density is lower; this includes ice, where water molecules become farther apart

<p>Polar covalent bonds</p>

Polar covalent bonds

Bonds created by the hydrogen atoms in water as a result of being attracted towards oxygen

<p>Polar molecule</p>

Polar molecule

A molecule where the overall charge is unevenly distributed

  • Water is an example of this it as it can form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules

Density

The measure of how much volume a certain amount of mass takes up
