Water is called a universal solvent because of its ability to dissolve different types of substances.
The basic unit of life is cell and a large portion of living cell (60%) is made up of water, this is because cells need water to survive. Biochemical reactions are always ongoing in the living cells and water act as solvents under which these reactions occur. Because of the high solubility of water, it is able to dissolve various substances needed by the body, this makes it easy for the substance to participate in chemical reactions and to move from one point to another. Without water biochemical reactions will not be able to occur in cells and this will lead to the death of the cells.
Solids always have definite shape and definite volume because their particles are packed together. Liquids have a definite volume but not definite shape, because their particles still kinda tight but able to move around, and gases don’t have a definite shape nor volume, because their particles are crazy and go everywhere
<span>A river can only carry a load if it has adequate energy. When the energy drops below a certain level, therefore, the load is dropped. In the Thalweg (the line of fastest flow), more load is carried, and this is also where the erosion occurs, adding more load. On the inside of a meander, for example, since the Thalweg is on the outside, the velocity on the inside is very low, and so deposition occurs. On the very inside, water merely trickles past. This is incapable of transporting load, so it deposits it until it is able to carry all of it.</span>
<span>Dried fruits and raisins get terribly soggy after being drenched in milk for a long period of time. They act like a sponge, absorbing all of the milk up making them wet and "soggy". I prefer them to be like that when I eat my cereal in the morning.</span>
Answer:
are a gas at very low volumes, when gas particles are very close together
a gas at very low temperatures, when gas particles have very little kinetic energy
a gas with highly polar molecules that have very strong intermolecular forces
