  • WATER
    • Polar molecule
      • Oxygen is electronegative, hydrogen is electropositive
    • High number of hydrogen bonds
      • Stable
      • Cohesive
        • Surface tension
    • Increasing pressure does not make volume smaller
    • Ice is less dense than water as molecules in ice are held further apart than in liquid water
    • High specific heat capacity
    • High latent heat of vapourisation
    • High latent heat of fusion
