Surface Tension: Surface tension makes water not move collapse until hitting a certain point. At 20 degrees Celsius, water has a surface tension ranging about 72.8 dynes/cm.

Viscosity: Viscosity is the measure of a fluid’s resistance to the change at a rate. Viscosity of water is 1 centipoise at 20 degrees Celsius.

drip, high speed, liquid

Cohesion: Cohesion is the attraction of molecules to other molecules of the same kind within in water.

wave, ocean, sea

Universal Solvent: Water is a universal solvent because it dissolves a lot more substances compared to other liquids.

water, cup, beverages

Real World Importance: Water is needed for animals and humans to survive. It is a necessity for beings to survive in this world and without we would all die. It helps us maintain body temperature and hydrates us. Without water, we would not exist which is why we need to do our best to conserve our environment for ourselves and the future people.

Intermolecular forces: Water molecules are polar with intermolecular dipole-dipole hydrogen bonds . This means as water attract and form their bonds, water then exhibits surface tension and vaporization.
