1703846199Cohesion-The hydrogen bonds that hold the substance to water -Water - water0
1703846200Adhesion-The clinging of one substance to another -Water - substance1
1703846201Kinetic Energy-The energy of motion2
1703846202Heat-Measure of total amount of kinetic energy in a body of matter3
1703846203Temperature-The AVERAGE amount of kinetic energy in a body of matter4
1703846204Calorie (cal.)-The amount of heat it takes to raise the temp of 1g of water by 1°C5
1703846205Specific Heat-The amount of heat that must be absorbed or lost for 1g of that substance to change its temp by 1°C6
1703846206Heat of Vaporization-The QUANTITY of heat a liquid must absorb for 1g of it to be converted from liquid to gas7
1703846207Evaporative Cooling-As liquid evaporates, the surface of the liquid that remains behind cools down (it's temp decreases)8

1703846213Hydrophilic-Water loving -Ionic or polar bonds Ex.) Cotton14
1703846214Hydrophobic-Water fearing -Non-polar; non-ionic Ex.) Oil15
1703846215Molecular Mass-Sum of the masses of all the atoms in a molecule16
