Water is an amazing molecule
Water covers 70% of our planet and all of life depends on it
Water makes up to 60% of our body and we need it to survive
We use water everyday for drinking, cleaning, cooking, and doing science!!

What makes water special? Water molecules are made up of two
hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atoms A water molecule's chemical equation is:
H2O
Due to oxygen's two unshared pairs of electrons, water molecules are polar

What does polar mean? Polar means one
end has a positive charge and one end has a negative charge
Let's make
our own water
molecules!!

Water Molecule Activity Everyone take one large popcorn ball,
two small popcorn balls and two toothpicks
Construct a water molecule Remember one side will be negative
and one side will be positive Hint: Who is the most famous
mouse?

Water Molecule

Hydrogen bonding Water molecules form hydrogen bonds with
each other due to their polar nature
Simulate how you think hydrogen bonding works using your water molecule with your neighbors.

Liquid and Solid

Hydrogen bonding
These hydrogen bonds give water many of their unique features including:
Being a universal solvent Water naturally occurs in all three
phases of matter on our planet High boiling point & low freezing
point Strong surface tension

Surface Tension Water particles are attracted to each
other in all directions, making them "stick" together
However, because there are no water particles above them, the water particles at the surface "stick" only to particles next to and below them. This makes the surface act as if it had a thin "skin"
This is called surface tension

Let's check it out!! Get into groups of four and have one person
from each group gather supplies from the front of the class
Fill cups halfway with water
Try to float a paper clip on the surface of the water
Tip: Use a small piece of paper towel to help you if you need it. Place the paper towel on the water's surface and then place the paper clip on top of the paper towel.

Let's Review! A water molecule is made from two
hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Water is a polar molecule Hydrogen bonding between the water
molecules is what gives water its unique properties
