2. Warm Up Use your textbook to look up and write down the definitions to the following terms Heat capacity Latent heat of melting Latent heat of evaporation

3. Objective SWBAT: Describe the Chemical and Physical features of sea water Describe the unique properties of water

4. Chemical and Physical Features of Seawater and the World Ocean Chapter 3

5. The Blue Planet

6. Surface Tension http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2suY9h7xnKg

7. Hydrogen Bonds Attractions between water molecules Weak Temperature reflects average speed of the molecules D=m/v As sea water gets colder, it gets more dense.

8. Water and Ice

9. Less Dense Frozen

11. Melting Ice Takes a lot of heat. Hydrogen bonds have to be broken. The amount of heat required to melt a substance is called the latent heat of melting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpDJmRydR0 4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpDJmRydR0 4

13. Heat capacity The amount of heat it takes to raise a substances temperature by a given amount. Water has a high heat capacity

14. Latent heat of evaporation Water absorbs a great deal of heat when it evaporates.

15. Universal Solvent Water is very good at dissolving salts Charged atoms or groups of atoms are known as ions Salts have much stronger electric charges than the opposite end of the water molecule. Bonds between ions are stronger than hydrogen bonds

16. Water dissolves salt

17. Seawater Characteristics of seawater are due to the nature of pure water and solutes Weathering Volcanoes Hydrothermal vents.

18. Vocab Cohesion Surface tension Hydrogen bonds Heat capacity Latent heat of melting Universal solvent

19. Exit Ticket #1A)When looking at a graph of water changing phases you notice that at some points on the graph the temperature remains constant even when heat is being added…. Explain why this occurs B) What is that property of water called? 2) What does cohesion mean? 3) Are hydrogen bonds weak or strong?

20. Do Now Explain how fish are able to survive in lakes during the winter if water freezes What is the difference between a solvent and a solute?

21. Objective SWBAT: Describe the law of constant proportions Define what a thermocline is and graph a temperature profile *Lithogenous – red clay most abundant sediment in the open ocean

22. Salt composition Remember- water is the universal solvent Seawater contains a little of almost everything, most of the solutes are made up of a small group of ions 6 ions compose over 99% of the solids dissolved in seawater Sodium chloride accounts for 85%

23. Salinity The total amount of salt dissolved in seawater How is it expressed? Parts per thousand Because of the electrical charges ions are good conductors of electricity Electric conductivity of seawater therefore reflects salt concentration Practical salinity units (psu)

24. Salinity on organisms Organisms are affected by total amount of salt and the type of salt Examine salts left after evaporation

25. Table 3.1

26. Rule of constant proportions William Dittmar – chemist analyzed samples from the Challenger expedition. The relative proportions of ions in sea water are constant. In other words, the percentage accounted for by each ion is always the same. Oceans are chemically well mixed Varies by addition or subtraction of pure water

27. Average Salinity 35 0/00 Open ocean varies little between 33 0/00 and 37 0/00 The variation mostly depends on evaporation and precipitation

28. Red Sea The Red Sea is very salty About 40 0/00 Salinity affects the density of water like temperature Salty water is more dense than freshwater

29. Where is it?

30. Check for understanding How do we know the oceans are well mixed? How does the salinity of the ocean change if the salt level remains the same? How is salinity expressed?

31. Salt water Freezes at a lower temperature than freshwater Oceans are less prone to freezing than lakes and rivers are Temperature varies more in the ocean than salinity Open ocean range is about -2 degrees C and 30 degrees C

32. Measuring temp. and salinity Specially designed bottles and thermometers on a wire to the desired depth A weight known as a messenger is released to slide down the wire. Temperature profile

34. CTDs Conductivity, temperature and depth in the water column Used along with other instruments. Bathythermographs – measure temp but not salinity

35. Complications w/ samples What are some complications that scientists may face when collecting samples? Hmm.. Trying to get samples from multiple sites Weather and climate variability

36. Solutions What are some solutions to these problems? Hmm… Instruments could drift with the currents

37. Exit Ticket What is the law of constant proportions? What is the average salinity of the ocean? T or F a themocline is a rapid change in temperature with depth?
