Physical Properties of Water

  • Pure water is colorless, odourless, and tasteless
  • Boiling point: 100°C at normal pressure (760 mm Hg)
  • Freezing point: 0°C at normal pressure
2

Water as Universal Solvent and Solutions

  • Water dissolves many substances due to high dielectric constant
  • Solutions are homogeneous mixtures with variable composition
  • Solute dissolves in solvent to form solution
3

Solubility and Saturated Solutions

  • Solubility is grams of solute per 100g solvent at specific temperature
  • Factors affecting solubility: particle size, stirring, temperature
4

Crystallization and Crystal Types

  • Crystals are homogeneous solids with definite geometric shape
  • Crystallization occurs by cooling saturated solutions
  • Different compounds form different crystal shapes
