Really need help!
What is the basis for the unique properties that are attributed to the water molecule?
Its structure
How does the structure of water explain the physical and chemical properties of water?
The molecule structure of water has a strong bond, therefore water is a very stable compound. The structure has also a lot of hydrogen bridges, which add to its stability. Because of that and so much more, water has its unique properties. And it's because of its molecular structure that life on earth was even developed in the first place.
What is the simplest particle of water that retains the properties of water?
h2O
What property of water causes many of its properties?
The polarity of the water molecule is responsible for most of water's properties.

Does the concept of polarity explain water peculiar properties?
Water is a polar molecule, it means that a water molecule has an uneven distribution of electron density. This polarity of water gives it unique properties such as - vaporization, strong surface tension, high specific heat and universal solvent properties Floating of ice in water and the exclusion of compounds containing carbon and hydrogen are also due to polarity of water.
How water temperature affects the structure?
The structure of the molecule remain unchanged.
What describes the structure of a water molecule?
bent
