WATER AND SOLUTION Water as a Basic Need of Life ‘The bubble ma Diagram 5.1 shows water as a basic need of all life. -THINK Diagram 5.1 Water as a basic need of al ite Water is a Compound 1. Water isa compound that consists of molecules containing the elements, hydrogen and oxygen which are chemically combined. 2. Water can be broken down into its elements, hydrogen and oxygen through the electrolysis process. 3. Diagram 5.2 shows the electrolysis of water. In electrolysis, (a) oxygen gas is produced at the anode (+) which is connected to the positive terminal of a source of electrical energy. (b) hydrogen gas is produced at the cathode (-) which is connected to the negative terminal of a source of electrical energy. (©) the ratio of volume of hydrogen gas to ‘oxygen gas is 2:1. 4, Based on the results of water electrolysis, each water molecule consists of two owt] Batorias hydrogen atoms (H) and one oxygen atom ‘w= Hygogen tome (©) which are chemically combined.

The physical properties of water are as follows: (a) Water exists in solid (ic), liquid (water) and gaseous (water vapour) states. (b) Water isa liquid at room temperature with no colour (colourless), no smell and no taste. (©) Water has a capillary action. (@) Water has a high surface tension, (@) The freezing point of pure water is 0°C. (0). The boiling point of pure water is 100°C. (@) The density of pure water is 1 g.cm?, inside it, that is the stronger the capillary effect. The capillary action of water in capillary tubes is produced by the adhesive force between water molecules and molecules ‘on the surface inside the capillary tube. The smaller the diameter of the capillary tube, the higher the water will rise . The surface tension of water is produced by cohesive force between water molecules. Examples of the effects of the surface tension of water are shown in Diagram 5.6. Diagram 5 Capiliay action of water 2. A few drops of dilute sulphuric acid are added tp distilled water. Then, the switch is turned on. ‘When measuring cylinder B is half filled with gas, the switch is tumed off. The ratio of volume of gas in measuring cylinder B to volume of gas in measuring cylinder A is observed and recorded. The gases collected in measuring cylinders A and B are tested with a glowing wooden splinter and 4@ burning (lighted) wooden splinter. Observations 1. The ratio of volume of gas produced at the cathode and the anode is 2:1, that is, two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. The gas in measuring cylinder A reignites the slowing wooden splinter. The burning wooden splinter continues to bum in measuring cylinder A. The gas in measuring cylinder B produces a ‘pop’ sound when tested with a burning wooden splinter. The glowing wooden splinter is extinguished in measuring cylinder B in the end.
