  2. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Although hydrogen bonding is a relatively weak attraction compared to the covalent bonds within the water molecule itself, it is responsible for several of the water's physical properties. These properties include its relatively high melting and boiling point temperatures: more energy is required to break the hydrogen bonds between water molecules.

  3. Outline of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_water

    Water – chemical substance with the chemical formula H 2 O. A water molecule contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms connected by covalent bonds. Water is a liquid at ambient conditions , but it often co-exists on Earth with its solid state, ice , and gaseous state ( water vapor or steam ).

  4. List of materials properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_materials_properties

    A material property is an intensive property of a material, i.e., a physical property or chemical property that does not depend on the amount of the material. These quantitative properties may be used as a metric by which the benefits of one material versus another can be compared, thereby aiding in materials selection.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water

    Water (data page) – Chemical data page for water is a collection of the chemical and physical properties of water. Aquaphobia – Persistent and abnormal fear of water; Blue roof – Roof of a building that is designed to provide temporary water storage; Catchwater – Runoff catching or channeling device; Human right to water and sanitation

  6. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

    In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of material that is chemically uniform, physically distinct, and (often) mechanically separable. In a system consisting of ice and water in a glass jar, the ice cubes are one phase, the water is a second phase, and the humid air is a third phase over the ice and water.

  7. Physical property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_property

    This is similar to the way in which objects are supervenient on atomic structure. A cup might have the physical properties of mass, shape, color, temperature, etc., but these properties are supervenient on the underlying atomic structure, which may in turn be supervenient on an underlying quantum structure. Physical properties are contrasted ...

  8. Chemical property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_property

    Chemical properties can be contrasted with physical properties, which can be discerned without changing the substance's structure. However, for many properties within the scope of physical chemistry, and other disciplines at the boundary between chemistry and physics, the distinction may be a matter of researcher's perspective. Material ...

  9. Molecular property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_property

    Molecular properties include the chemical properties, physical properties, and structural properties of molecules, including drugs. Molecular properties typically do not include pharmacological or biological properties of a chemical compound .
