The of water molecules and the hydrogen bonds between water molecules explain most of the waters life supporting properties?
Water is a polar molecule with several unique properties: its high specific heat, the high heat of vaporization, the process of evaporative cooling, and it's strong surface tension are all emergent from the formation of hydrogen bonds.
When completing the water properties lab which property of water was responsible for the water molecules sticking to the penny?
This property is called adhesion.
Is cohesion a property of water?
It is a physical property because no new substance is formed.
Water molecules can bond to other water molecules by hydrogen bonding?
Not only can they, but in the liquid state they do so continuously. Hydrogen bonding between water molecules gives it many of its unique properties, such as being a liquid at standard conditions, which is essential for life; high heat capacity and heat of vaporization; and the fact that solid water is less dense than liquid water.
What do the unusual properties of water mostly comes from?
Mostly from the fact that there is strong hydrogen bonding between the molecules. This, for instance, gives water much higher melting and boiling points than we'd otherwise expect for such small molecules.
What are some unigue properties of water?
The formula for water is H2O, and its boiling point is 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Cohesion and adhesion are the unique properties of water. They are a result of the hydrogen bond that exists between water molecules.
What emergent properties of water explains whywater droplets assume spherical shape?
could it be due to its cohesive behaviour?

Are water particles really water molecules?
If you mean the smallest particle of water that has the properties of water, then yes, water particles are molecules.
What happens to the motion of the water molecules as a result?
As a result of WHAT?
What is the cohesive properties of the water?
This property due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules is the cause of the water molecules sticking.
What makes water adhesive?
cohesion-- Water molecules stick to each other. adhesion-- Water molecules stick to other molecules. Water is a polar molecule because of oxygen is more electronegative. Hydrogen bonds create surface tension and result it water's cohesive and adhesive properties. Hydrophobic = repel water Hydropholic = affinity for water. ...... hahaha XD
What is a wather?
Water is H2O, 2 molecules of hydrogen and 1 molecule of oxygen. Water is slightly polar (has an electric charge). Surface tension and capillary action are the properties that result from polar water molecules. Surface tension is the property of water molecules clinging to each other. Capillary action is just like surface tension except water clings to other molecules (e.g. glass, plastic).
How the interactions of water at the molecular level enable it to possess different properties?
These properties are due to the association of water molecules by hydrogen bonds.
How does the hydrogen bonding between water molecules affect the properties of water?
It enables water molecules to stick to each other and to many other things.
Does water properties strictly depend on covalent polar chemical bonds?
Water properties are also influenced by the hydrogen bonds formrd between water molecules.
Which of these properties of water cannot be attributed to hydrogen bonding between water molecules?
non polar molecule
