MDC Water Properties Responsible for The Result of The Experiment Paper

What makes water so important to life?

Some may argue DNA is the most important molecule to life while others may argue that certain proteins are. However, many would argue water is the molecule needed for life to survive and thrive.

So, what makes water so important? Its has properties that allow it to interact with many other molecules necessary for life. The nature of the three atoms in a water molecule, H₂O, and how they interact allows water to be a polar molecule.

Common sense tells you that it’s impossible to boil water in a paper bag, but this classic parlor trick was a favorite of the Victorian magician. As you might imagine, the secret lies in yet another amazing property of water. Instead of using a paper bag, this modern day version of the demonstration uses an ordinary balloon, some water and a candle. It’s a combination that’s guaranteed to make people stand back. Follow the directions below after watching the video.

1. Open the Claim Evidence Reasoning _CER_ CH2.docx Claim Evidence Reasoning _CER_ CH2.docx – Alternative Formats
2. Make a claim to answer the question: Which of the water properties is responsible for the results of the experiment?
3. Information presented in the video and the rest of the chapter will provide EVIDENCE to support your claim or you may find evidence that make you change your claim. Which you can!! As long as the evidence supports the new claim.
4. When all of the evidence has been collected, you will explain the reasoning for your claim using the evidence as support.
5. The completed CER will be submitted in the next section of this chapter.
