what are 2 properties of water?

can anyone help me with my bio stuff?

 

[KLin]

wet and cold?

 

[MichaelD]

Do your own damn homework you lazy little turd.

 

[compfreak999]

errr no, i think one of them is hydrogen bonding but what are the other ones? and can anyone define them a bit for me please

 

[Semidevil]

transparent,

conductive.

 

[dighn]

it's liquid and odorless

im trying to read the ib bio book, err too hard to comprehend🙁

and oxygen?

 

[esun]

Yeah, WTH kind of question is that?

It is polar, and it is more dense at 4 degrees Celsius than it is at 0 degrees Celsius.

I would say water is Translucent.

 

[glen]

It is most dense at 4 Celcius.
This means water freezes on top first.

and not conductive

surface tension is strong
it is the only substance that exists naturally on earth in 3 differant phases

Now you both are contradicting yourselves. Pure H2O is damn near transparent, but is non-conductive. However, turn it translucent (my adding almost any impurity) and it becomes conductive. So pick one damnit 😛

 

[Lizardman]

Van der Walls force

 

[eigen]

You can heat it using mircowaves.Since water is a dipole it reorients in E fields ...it may lag behind the field which generates heat..The amount of heat is dependent on the phase difference

Pure water will even distort how an object looks, therefore it's translucent.
