Properties of Water

Properties of Water

The first image taken by humans of the whole Earth. Photographed by the crew of Apollo 8, the photo shows the Earth at a distance of about 30,000 km. Space has no respect for “North” and “South” as the southern most tip of South America is at the top of the photo.

Density

Density

Water reaches a maximum density of 1.00 g/cm3 at a temperature of 3.98C.

Water expands (becomes less dense) as it freezes

Slide 5

Rock Weathering

Rock Weathering

The expansion of freezing water exerts sufficient force to fracture rock, and is a significant cause of rock weathering.

Slide 6

Water’s Thermochemistry

Water’s Thermochemistry

Specific heat and Latent heat of phase change, as they apply to water.

Slide 7

Units for Measuring Heat

Units for Measuring Heat

The Joule is the SI system unit for measuring heat:

The calorie is the heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 Celsius degree

The British thermal unit (BTU or Btu) is the amount of energy needed to heat one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.

Slide 8

Specific Heat

Specific Heat

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree Celsius.

Slide 9

Specific Heat

Specific Heat

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree Celsius.

Slide 10

Calculations Involving Specific Heat

Calculations Involving Specific Heat

cp = Specific Heat

Q = Heat lost or gained

T = Temperature change

OR

m = Mass

Slide 12

Energy and Phase Change

Energy and Phase Change

Along LEG ‘A’ water exists as a solid (ice), and the temperature increases as energy is absorbed.
