Quiz Answers

1. Water contracts (gets smaller) when it freezes. False. Water actually expands (gets less dense) when it freezes, which is unusual for liquids. Think of ice—it is one of the few items that floats as a solid. If it didn’t, then lakes would freeze from the bottom up (that would mean we’d have to wear wet suits when ice skating), and some lakes way up north would be permanent blocks of ice.

2. Water has a high surface tension. True. Water has the highest surface tension among common liquids (mercury is higher). Surface tension is the ability of a substance to stick to itself (cohere). That is why water forms drops and also why when you look at a glass of water, the water “rises” where it touches the glass (the meniscus). Plants are happy that water has a high surface tension because they use capillary action to draw water from the ground up through their roots and stems.

3. Condensation is water coming out of the air. True. Water that forms on the outside of a cold glass or on the inside of a window in winter is liquid water condensing from water vapour in the air. Air contains water vapour (humidity). In cold air, water vapour condenses faster than it evaporates. So, when the warm air touches the outside of your cold glass, the air next to the glass gets chilled, and some of the water in that air turns from water vapour to tiny liquid water droplets. Clouds in the sky and the “cloud” you see when you exhale on a cold day are condensed water-vapour particles.

4. More things can be dissolved in sulfuric acid than in water. False. Sulfuric acid might be able to dissolve a car, but water isn’t know as the “universal solvent” for nothing. It can dissolve more substances than any other liquid. This is lucky for us…what is all the sugar in your soft drink ended up as a pile at the bottom of the glass? The water you see in rivers, lakes, and the ocean may look clear, but it actually contains many dissolved elements and minerals, and because these elements are dissolved, they can easily move with water over the surface of the earth.

5. Rainwater is the purest form of water. False. Distilled water is actually “purer”. Rainwater contains small amounts of dissolved minerals that have been blown into the air by winds. Rainwater contains tiny particles of dust and dissolved gasses, such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide (acid rain). That doesn’t mean rain water isn’t clean—normally only about 1/100,000th of the weight of rain comes from these substances.

6. It takes more energy to heat water at room temperature to 100°C than it does to change 100°C water to steam. False. More energy is needed to begin turning the boiling liquid water into gaseous water vapour. The bonds holding water molecules as a liquid are not easily broken. It takes seven times as much energy to turn boiling water into steam as it does to heat water at room temperature to the boiling point.

7. If you evaporate an 8-inch glass of water from the Great Salt Lake (with a salinity of about 20% by weight), you will end up with about 1 inch of salt. True. About one-fifth of the weight of the water comes from salt. And how much saltier is Great Salt Lake water than seawater? Quite a bit. Seawater has a salt concentration of about 3.5%.

8. Sea water is slightly more basic (the pH value is higher) than most natural fresh water. True. Neutral water, such as distilled water, has a pH of 7 which is in the middle of being acidic and alkaline (basic). Seawater happens to be slightly basic with a pH of 8.

9. Raindrops are tear shaped. False. Yes when a drop of water comes out of a faucet it does have a tear shape. That is because the back end of the water drop sticks to the water still in the faucet until it can’t hold on any more. Using high speed cameras, scientists have found that falling water raindrops look more like hamburger buns. As rain falls, the air below the drop pushes up from the bottom, causing the drop to flatten out somewhat. The strong surface tension of water holds the drop together, resulting in a bun shape.

10. Water boils quicker in Denver, Co. than at the beach. True. The boiling point of water gets lower as you go up in altitude. At beach level, water boils at 100°C. But at 5,000 feet, about where Denver is located, water boils at 95°C, and up at 10,000 feet it boils at 90°C. This is because as the altitude gets higher, the air pressure (the weight of all that air above you) becomes less. Since there is less pressure pushing on a pot of water at a higher altitude, it is easier for the water molecules to break their bonds and attraction to each other, thus, it boils more easily.
