Adhesion

the ability of water to stick to matter

Attract

to come together

Buoyancy

the ability or tendency to float in water or air or some other fluid.

Capillary Action

The ability of water to move through small tubes due to adhesion and cohesion working together

Cohesion

the ability of water molecules to cling to each other due to hydrogen bonding

Concentration

amount of solute in a specific amount of solvent

Covalent Bond

a bond between two atoms were 2 electrons share atoms

Density

The amount of mass per unit volume (or how tightly packed molecules of a substance are)

Dilution (Dilute)

to make or become less concentrated, especially by adding water or a thinning substance.

Gas

A state of matter where molecules move freely and quickly because they are very hot (energetic)

Heat Capacity

When a substance can hold on to heat

Hydrophobic

(Fear of water) Repelling, tending not to combine with or unable to dissolve in water

Hydrophilic

(water loving) Having an infinity for water, readily absorbing or dissolving in water

Insoluble

unable to be dissolved

Liquid

A state of matter where molecules are less tightly pack, can move freely

Miscibility

The ability of a liquid to mix well with another liquid

Molecule

smallest particle of a substance composed of 2 or more atoms

Polar Molecule

One side is positively charged and the other side is negatively charged and the other side is negatively charged

Repel

to move apart

Saturation

when no more solute can be absorbed or added

Solid

A state of matter where molecules are tightly packed because of their cooler temperature

Solubility

When a solid is able to dissolve in a liquid

Soluble

capable of being dissolved

Solute

The substance dissolved in a solution

Solvent

the substance that dissolves the solute

Surface Tension

the force that acts on the surface of a liquid and that tends to minimize the area of the surface. Create a skin over the water due to cohesion

Universal Solvent

the ability to dissolve many substances

Unsaturated

solvents is capable of dissolving still more of the solute. Not saturated
