Ice floats on a lake This characteristic of water is responsible for?
preventing a lake from freezing solid (correct answer)
What agent is responsible for the formation of the Florida landforms called dunes?
Erosion,deposition by water,wind , ice , and gravity
Does cohesion cause water to resist temperature changes?
high specific heat
Is water and ice same?
No they are both water, ice is water in a solid state.
What is water that is below the surface called?
Liquid Ice (i don't know)
Does ice float on water because of cohesion?
Ice floats in water because it is less dense than water. It is nothing to do with cohesion.
Which force is responsible when water sticks on finger?
Cohesion.
The cohesion of water molecules is responsible for surface?
Tension
which property of water is responsible for plants being able to transport water from their roots to stems?
Cohesion. One of water's most distinctive properties is cohesion—that is, the tendency of water molecules to "stick" to one another.
What are examples of adhesion and cohesion?
cohesion: water's cohesion causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops pf water form beads on a smooth surface. adhesion: adhesion between water and glass causes water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity ice formingon the surface of water bodies in winter
What is a sentence for cohesion?
cohesion is water sticking to water
How does cohesion affects water?
Cohesion is the action of water molecules sticking together
What kind of bond gives water its important properties of adhesion cohesion and specific heat?
They type of chemical bond that is responsible for the properties of adhesion and cohesion is hydrogen bonding. In cohesion the water's hydrogen bonds make water self-sticky, it beads up. In adhesion water has the ability to climb up the wall of any container it is in.
Which type of bond is responsible for water's cohesion and which atoms interact to form this bond?
A hydrogen bond between the oxygen of one water molecule and the hydrogen of another water molecule.
What is the term for the cohesion of water molecules?
The term for the cohesion of water molecules is surface tension.
What property of water is NOT attributable to hydrogen bonding between water molecules A heat storage B ice formation C polarity D cohesion?
Transparency and wetness.
What is an example of cohesion in everyday life?
Carmel or Maple Syrup that is a visious cohesion, a calm cohesion is milk and or water!!
