2. Aqua Man’s Adventure Hello, my name is Dr. Droplet and I am here to teach you about water with Aqua Man. One day, Aqua Man wanted to go for an afternoon swim because the water is very refreshing. The density of water is 1.0 g/mL and the universal solvent is also water. The significance of waters density is that any substance that has a density of 1.0 g/mL or more will float on water and any substance that has a density of below that will float on top of water.

3. As Aqua Man had jumped into the pool, he stuck to the other water molecules forming adhesion. The impact of Aqua Man jumping into the pool caused a big splash making the other molecules fly out of the pool. The water molecules stuck to the grass forming cohesion.

4. Aqua Man and a lot of other molecules then started to rise up into the sky. This is called evaporation and it is a part of the water cycle, which is the cycle of evaporation and condensation that controls the distributions of the earth’s water as it evaporates from bodies of water, condenses, precipitates, and returns to those bodies of water. After Aqua Man flew up into the sky, clouds started forming around him which is called Condensation Aqua Man and a lot of other molecules then started to rise up into the sky.

After Aqua Man flew up into the sky, clouds started forming around him which is called Condensation.

5. As Aqua Man was in the middle of condensation, the clouds started to turn gray and gloomy and this is the process before precipitation. Precipitation occurs when the clouds contain too much water droplets that the clouds can handle at once and the water droplets fall as rain drops which is called precipitation.

6. Aqua Man started to get crunched up with the other water molecules and he started to sink through the cloud and Aqua Man was then flying down through the air as a water molecule and that is the start of precipitation.

7. As Aqua Man was flying through the air as a water molecule, a gust of wind blew him toward the rain forest because of Capillary Action. Capillary Action is when the positive and negative charges in the tree attract polar water molecules. As Aqua Man had landed on a tall tree in the rain forest, he was able to stick to it because of surface tension. Surface Tension is when the water behaves like a small flexible sheet allowing water to “sit” on the surface of things.

8. Aqua Man also stuck to tree because he has two different charges. One side is negative and the other side is positive and that is called polarity. Aqua Man’s negative side of his body was attached to the tree’s positive side creating Hydrogen Bond. A hydrogen bond is a type of attractive intermolecular force that exists between two partial electric charges of opposite polarity. Suddenly, Aqua Man had started to slide slowly down the tree and into a small stream of water. Aqua Man also stuck to tree because he has two different charges.

9. The water was very cold but Aqua Man was a warm water molecule making the specific heat increase by 1 degree Celsius. Aqua Man had then reunited with his fellow rain drop friends and continued his adventure through the water cycle.

10. 1. More than 79,000 tons of chlorine are used per year in the United States and Canada to treat water. 2. Of all the earth's water, 97% is salt water found in oceans and seas. 3. Only 1% of the earth's water is available for drinking water. Two percent is currently frozen. 4. About two thirds of the human body is water. Some parts of the body contain more water than others. For example,70% of your skin is water. 5. There are more than 56,000 community water systems providing water to the public in the United States. 6. Public water suppliers process 38 billion gallons of water per day for domestic and public use. 7. Approximately 1 million miles of pipelines and aqueducts carry water in the United States and Canada. That's enough to circle the earth 40 times. 8. About 800,000 water wells are drilled each year in the United States for domestic, farming, commercial, and water testing purposes. 9. Typically, households consume at least 50% of their water by lawn watering. Inside, toilets use the most water, with an average of 27 gallons per person per day. 10. You can survive about a month without food, but only 5 to 7 days without water. 11. Each person uses about 100 gallons of water a day at home. 1.
