Activity 4: Matter, Water & pH Review Questions

1. Cohesion
A. A bond between two atoms in which electrons are shared. A covalent bond can either be polar or nonpolar.
B. The negatively charged part(s) of an atom located on the outside of the atom.
C. A substance that is really good at dissolving a variety of other substances. Water is considered the universal
solvent.
D. When electrons are not shared equally between two atoms, some atoms have a slight positive charge and some
atoms have a slight negative charge

2. Polar

A. A property of water that refers to water's ability to move up a thin tube (like a plant stem) because of cohesion and
adhesion
B. A measure of how acidic or basic a substance is. The pH scale goes from 0 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than
7 is acidic. A pH greater than 7 is basic.
C. A property of water that refers to water's ability stick to itself.
D. The positively charged part(s) of an atom located in the middle of the atom.

3. pH Scale

A. A substance with a pH less than 7

B. A substance with a pH of 7 is neutral. Water is the only substance with a truly neutral pH.
C. A property of water that refers to water's ability stick to itself.
D. A bond between two atoms in which electrons are shared. A covalent bond can either be polar or nonpolar.

4. Neutral
A. A substance that is really good at dissolving a variety of other substances. Water is considered the universal
solvent.
B. A measure of how acidic or basic a substance is. The pH scale goes from 0 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than
7 is acidic. A pH greater than 7 is basic.
C. A substance with a pH of 7 is neutral. Water is the only substance with a truly neutral pH.
D. The positively charged part(s) of an atom located in the middle of the atom.

5. Proton

A. A substance that is really good at dissolving a variety of other substances. Water is considered the universal
solvent.
B. A measure of how acidic or basic a substance is. The pH scale goes from 0 - 14. A pH of 7 is neutral. A pH less than
7 is acidic. A pH greater than 7 is basic.
C. A substance with a pH of 7 is neutral. Water is the only substance with a truly neutral pH.
D. The positively charged part(s) of an atom located in the middle of the atom.
