Water properties
WATER is the only substance that occurs naturally on Earth in all three forms (solid, liquid, and gas)
Molecule: 
Hydrogen bonds form when the positive Hydrogen end of water is attracted to the negative oxygen end of another water molecule, creating a weak bond. They are the most important thing about water.
Hydrogen bonds:
PROPERTIES:
High cohesion: Water has high cohesion, which means that it can attract easily another molecule of water (Cohesion meaning the attraction between two like things) Water has the highest cohesion of any non-metalic liquid
-
Surface tension: The water holds itself in a configuration that has the smallest surface area possible, this property allows certain bugs and one lizard to walk or stand on water.
-
Adhesion: Attraction of two different substances, it happens for example when you drop water on glass, the adhesion forces are stronger than the cohesive ones.
-
Capillary action: Thanks to both adhesion and cohesion, water can defy gravity by both forces pulling it at the same time
-
Solvent: Water is an amazing solvent, there are more substances that can be disolved on water than in any liquid on earth. The substances that disolve in water are called Hydrophilic
-
Ice density: Ice floats in water, which is weird because in most of the solids they are more dense than their liquid counterparts. In waters case, the solid is less dense than the liquid state, thanks to hydroden bonds.
