Answer 1

Water has a very high specific heat

Answer 2

thank you

Answer 5

one more please

Answer 6

A drop of water placed on a smooth, dry surface will form a dome-shaped droplet instead of flowing outward in different directions. Which of these best explains this observation?
The bonds between hydrogen and oxygen atoms are very strong.

The electrons in the atoms attract the electrons in the other atoms.

Water molecules at the surface experience fewer hydrogen bonds than water molecules within the liquid.

Water molecules near the surface produce more buoyant force than water molecules within the liquid.
