The origin of all life can be traced back to the water in the Earth’s precambrien seas. Water is also the universal solvent. It reacts with more elements and compounds than any other substance known to man. Water is a polar molecule made up of on atom of hydrogen and two atoms of oxygen. It is attracted

An intensive property is a physical quantity whose value does not depend on the amount of the substance for which it is measured. For example‚ the temperature of a system in thermal equilibrium is the same as the temperature of any part of it. If the system is divided the temperature of each subsystem is identical. The same applies to the density of a homogeneous system: if the system is divided in half‚ the mass and the volume change in the identical ratio and the density remains unchanged. According

Physical properties can be seen‚ touched‚ or even measured without the identity of the substance changing. The identity of the substance can be its shape or color. Three physical forms of a substance are solid‚ liquid‚ and gas. Water for example can transform into all three physical forms without its identity changing. The characteristic of water as a shape can be used as an example of a physical property. Water can be frozen into ice‚ vaporized‚ or liquidized. The shape of water as a solid is
