Why does water form droplets when present in small amounts?

I believe you are referring to the spherical or dome like shape of water droplets. This occurs because water is a very cohesive compound, meaning that its molecules tend to be attracted towards one another. This cohesion in water is because of the multiple hydrogen bonds water is able to make, especially with other water molecules.


What is it called when water vapour joins together to form droplets?

When water vapor joins together to form droplets, it is called condensation. This process occurs when the air cools and is no longer able to hold the water vapor in a gaseous form, leading to the formation of liquid droplets.


What property does water show when the molecules are attracted to each other?

Hydrogen Bonds (not actual bonds but strong inter-molecular forces)


Can water form hydrogen bonds form with itself?

Yes, water can form hydrogen bonds with itself. Each water molecule can form hydrogen bonds with up to four neighboring water molecules, resulting in a network of hydrogen-bonded water molecules, which gives water its unique properties like high surface tension and cohesion.


Which of the following contributes the most toward the ability of water to form hydrogen bonds?

Water can form hydrogen bonds because of the polarity of its oxygen hydrogen bonds. In these bonds, oxygen has a partial negative charge and hydrogen has a partial positive charge. Because of this, the partially positive hydrogens on one molecule can form bonds with partially negative oxygen atoms in other water molecules. These intermolecular bonds are hydrogen bonds.

What molecules enables water to form drops and store heat?

The hydrogen bonds within H2O are very strong and the surface tension that allows for water droplets to form comes from the strong cohesion of water molecules to other water molecules. The high specific heat capacity is also due to the strength of the hydrogen bonds.

What are two ways rain can form?

Rain can form through the process of condensation, where water vapor in the air cools and changes into liquid water droplets. Rain can also form through the collision and coalescence of water droplets in clouds, where smaller droplets merge together to form larger droplets that eventually fall as rain.
