Properties of Water What are the Properties of Water • Polarity • Attraction- cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, & capillary action • High specific heat • Density – greatest at 4oC • Universal solvent of life What is Polarity of Water • A water molecule with an uneven distribution of charges in different regions of the molecule • Water has a variety of unusual properties because of attractions between these polar molecules. – The slightly negative regions of one molecule are attracted to the slightly positive regions of nearby molecules, forming a hydrogen bond.

Hydrogen bond is a weak attraction between a hydrogen atom and other atom Properties of Water Covalent bonding vs. Hydrogen bonding Hydrogen Bond Covalent Bond What is Cohesion • cohesion = water attracted to other water molecules because of polar properties What is Cohesion? Hydrogen bonds hold the • Cohesion is responsible substance together, a for the transport of the phenomenon called water column in plants COHESION • Cohesion among water molecules plays a key role in the transport of water against gravity in plants What is Adhesion? •Water attracted to other materials What is surface tension? Surface tension, a measure of the force necessary to stretch or break the surface of a liquid, is related to cohesion. Surface tension – Water has a greater surface tension than most other liquids because hydrogen bonds among surface water molecules resist stretching or breaking the surface. – Water behaves as if covered by an invisible film. – Some animals can stand, walk, or run on water without breaking the surface. Fig. 3.3 Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings What is capillary action? It is the tendency of water to rise in a thin tube. Capillary Action Because water has both adhesive and cohesive properties, capillary action is present. Capillary Action = water’s adhesive property is the cause of capillary action. Water is attracted to some other material and then through cohesion, other water molecules move too as a result of the original adhesion. Ex: Think water in a straw Ex: Water moves through trees this way What is specific heat? Specific Heat is the amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for one gram of a substance to change its temperature by 1oC. Moderates Temperatures on Earth Water stabilizes air temperatures by absorbing heat from warmer air and releasing heat to cooler air. Water can absorb or release relatively large amounts of heat with only a slight change in its own temperature. Celsius Scale at Sea Level • What is kinetic energy? • Heat? 100oC Water boils • Temperature? 37oC Human body • Calorie? temperature • What is the difference in o 23 C Room temperature cal and Cal? • What is specific heat? 0oC Water freezes Specific heat Three-fourths of the earth is covered by water. The water serves as a large heat sink responsible for: 1. Prevention of temperature fluctuations that are outside the range suitable for life. 2. Coastal areas having a mild climate 3. A stable marine environment What is Density It when hydrogen bonds in water expand as it warms and contracts as it cools. The hydrogen bonds keeps the molecules far enough a part to make ice have fewer molecules. Solid – water molecules are bonded together – space between fixed Liquid – water molecules are constantly bonding and rebonding – space is always changing Density of Water • Most dense at 4oC • Contracts until 4oC • Expands from 4oC to 0oC The density of water: Mass-to -volume ratio of a substance; measure of how tightly matter is packed 1. Prevents water from freezing from the bottom up. 2. Ice forms on the surface first—the freezing of the water releases heat to the water below creating insulation. 3. Makes transition between season less abrupt. – When water reaches 0oC, water becomes locked into a crystalline lattice with each molecule bonded to to the maximum of four partners. – As ice starts to melt, some of the hydrogen bonds break and some water molecules can slip closer together than they can while in the ice state. – Ice is about 10% less dense than water at 4oC. Fig. 3.5 Copyright © 2002 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings What is Solvent for Life • Solution – Solute – solvent • Aqueous solution • Hydrophilic – Ionic compounds dissolve in water – Polar molecules (generally) are water soluble • Hydrophobic – Nonpolar compounds Mixtures with Water . • A solution is another name for a homogeneous mixture. • In a solution, there are two components: • A solvent is a substance in which another substance is dissolved. • A solute is the substance that is dissolved in the solvent. Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Water and Solutions Mixtures with Water Acids and bases • Many solutes readily dissolve in water because of water’s polarity. • Substances that release H+ when they are dissolved in water are called acids. • Substances that release hydroxide ions (OH−) when they are dissolved in water are called bases. Copyright © McGraw-Hill Education Water and Solutions Mixtures with Water pH and buffers • The amount of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in a solution determines the strength of an acid or base. • The measure of concentration of H+ in a solution is called pH. • Acids have pH values < 7; bases have pH values > 7 • Buffers are mixtures that can react with acids or bases to keep the pH within a particular range.

  • Hydrogen Bond Assisted Adhesion in Portland Cement-Based Materials

Rossetto1,2, V. C. Pandolfelli1 1Departamento de Engenharia de Materiais - DEMa, Universidade Federal de S. Carlos - UFSCar, Rod. Washington Luiz, km 235, S. Carlos, SP 13565-590 2Instituto de Física de S. Carlos, Universidade de S. Paulo - IFSC-USP, Av. Trabalhador São-Carlense 400, S. Carlos, SP 13566-590 [email protected] Abstract Adhesion is a physical-chemical parameter able to render innovations to Portland cement-based materials. However, this concept still lacks experimental evidence to underlie further developments in this subject. This work has demonstrated how distinct substances can impart different adhesion forces after evaluating the hydration degree and the mechanical strength of non-reactive cementitious materials. The substances capable of making tridimensional hydrogen bonds, such as water, for instance, were the most effective in providing cementitious samples with improved bending strength. It implies that water is not only important because of its role in cement hydration, but also because it develops adhesion between hydrated cementitious surfaces. More than speculating the fundamental understanding on adhesion in Portland cement-based materials, the present paper intends to stimulate thinking on how to take the benefits of the water confined between the hydrated cementitious surfaces as an in-built nanoadhesive, so far little explored, but at the same time so prone to yield high performance materials. Keywords: adhesion, hydrogen bond, mechanical properties, Portland cement. Resumo Adesão é um parâmetro físico-químico que pode promover inovações em materiais à base de cimento Portland.

  • Application of Aluminium Oxide Nanoparticles to Enhance Rheological and Filtration Properties of Water Based Muds at HPHT Condit
    Application of Aluminium Oxide Nanoparticles to Enhance Rheological and Filtration Properties of Water Based Muds at HPHT Conditions Sean Robert Smith1, Roozbeh Rafati*1, Amin Sharifi Haddad1, Ashleigh Cooper2, Hossein Hamidi1 1School of Engineering, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, United Kingdom, AB24 3UE 2Baroid Drilling Fluid Laboratory, Halliburton, Dyce, Aberdeen, United Kingdom, AB21 0GN Abstract Drilling fluid is of one of the most important elements of any drilling operation, and through ever advancing technologies for deep water and extended reach drillings, enhancement of drilling fluids properties for such harsh conditions need to be investigated. Currently oil based fluids are used in these types of advanced drilling operations, as their performance at high pressure and high temperature conditions, and deviated wells are superior compared to water based fluids. However, the high costs associated with using them, and environmental concerns of such oil base fluids are drawbacks of them at the moment. In this study, we tried to find a solution for such issues through investigation on the potential application of a new nano-enhanced water base fluid for advanced drilling operations. We analysed the performance of water base drilling fluids that were formulated with two type of nanomaterials (aluminium oxide and silica) at both high and low pressure and temperature conditions (high: up to 120 oC and 500 psi, low: 23 oC and 14.7 psi). The results were compared with a base case drilling fluid with no nanomaterial, and they showed that there is an optimum concentration for aluminium oxide nanoparticles that can be used to improve the rheological and filtration properties of drilling fluids.

  • Physical-Chemical Properties of Complex Natural Fluids
    Physical-chemical properties of complex natural fluids Vorgelegt von Diplom-Geochemiker Diplom-Mathematiker Sergey Churakov aus Moskau an der Fakultät VI - Bauingenieurwesen und Angewandte Geowissenschaften - der Technischen Universität Berlin zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Naturwissenschaften - Dr. rer. nat. - genehmigte Dissertation Berichter: Prof. Dr. G. Franz Berichter: Prof. Dr. T. M. Seward Berichter: PD. Dr. M. Gottschalk Tag der wissenschaftlichen Aussprache: 27. August 2001 Berlin 2001 D83 Abstract The dissertation is focused on the processes of transport and precipitation of metals in high temperature fumarole gases (a); thermodynamic properties of metamorphic fluids at high pressures (b); and the extent of hydrogen-bonding in supercritical water over wide range of densities and temperatures (c). (a) At about 10 Mpa, degassing of magmas is accompanied by formation of neary ‘dry’ salt melts as a second fluid phase, very strong fractionation of hydrolysis products between vapour and melts, as well as subvalence state of metals during transport processes. Based on chemical analyses of gases and condensates from high-temperature fumaroles of the Kudryavy volcano (i Iturup, Kuril Arc, Russia), a thermodynamic simulation of transport and deposition of ore- and rock-forming elements in high-temperature volcanic gases within the temperature range of 373-1373 K at 1 bar pressure have been performed. The results of the numerical simulations are consistent with field observations. Alkali and alkali earth metals, Ga, In, Tl, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn are mainly transported as chlorides in the gas phase. Sulfide and chloride forms are characteristic of Ge, Sn, Pb, and Bi at intermediate and low temperatures.
