What to Focus On

  • Formula of water: H2O
  • Chemical name: Dihydrogen oxide
  • Molecular mass of water: 18 amu

  • Water boils at 100°C at normal pressure
  • Water boils at 70°C at the top of Mount Everest
  • Water freezes at 0°C at normal pressure

  • Water dissolves many substances
  • Water is called universal solvent

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Water with soap always forms lather, so any water sample is soft water.

Temporary hardness and permanent hardness are removed in the same way by boiling.

Washing soda and boiling remove hardness by the same chemical change.

Memory Tips

Water exists in solid, liquid, and gas states

Maximum density of water at 4 degree Celsius
