Name ______Date ______Period _____ Properties of Water Raven Ch. 2 Big Idea 2: BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS UTILIZE FREE ENERGY AND MOLECULAR BUILDING BLOCKS TO GROW, TO REPRODUCE AND TO MAINTAIN HOMEOSTASIS.

Essential Knowledge:  All living systems require constant input of free energy.  Organisms capture and store free energy for use in biological processes.  Organisms must exchange matter with the environment to grow, reproduce and maintain organization.  Organisms exhibit complex properties due to interactions between their constituent parts.  Interactions between molecules affect their structure and function.  Variation in molecular units provides cells with a wider range of functions.

Why are we studying water? ______

Chemistry of water

. H2O molecules form ______with each other  ______(δ+) attracted to ______(δ–)  creates a sticky molecule Elixir of Life Special properties of water 1. Cohesion & Adhesion Cohesion  Hydrogen bonding ______molecules  Water is “sticky”  Creates ______-Explain: ______ Drinking straw Adhesion

 Hydrogen bonding between H2O & ______ Meniscus  Capillary action- (explain: ______ Ex: water climbs up paper towel, cloth, xylem 1 Transpiration- built on cohesion & adhesion -Explain: ______

2. Good solvent

 Substances that ______to H2O  polar or non-polar? Example: ______

3. Lower density as a solid (Special Case of Ice):  Most (all?) substances are more dense when they are ______but not water…  Ice floats!  Hydrogen bonds form a ______

Why is “ice floats” important?  Oceans & lakes don’t ______ surface ice ______water below  allowing life to survive the winter  if ice sank…ponds, lakes & even oceans would freeze solid; in summer, only upper few inches would thaw  seasonal ______of lakes

 sinking cold H2O cycles nutrients in autumn 2 4. High Specific Heat (Heat Capacity)
