I.                    Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:
A.      Describe the polarity of a water molecule and explain how that polarity affects the properties of water.
B.      Explain why water climbs the inside of a thin glass capillary but not a thin plastic capillary.
C.      Describe a system whereby the components of a water-based substance might be separated and discuss how this separation occurs.
D.     Explain why oil and water don't mix.
E.      Predict whether a substance, based on its hydrophilic and/or hydrophobic properties, will dissolve into water or oil.

Effects of Detergent

To Do

1.
With your finger, spread one small drop of detergent on the surface of a dry penny.
Predict

2.
How many drops do you think this penny will hold after being smeared with detergent, more, less, or the same as before? Why?


3.
Specifically, how many drops do you think it will hold?

      Discussion
  
Water covers about three fourths of the surface of the earth? It is ubiquitous. It is also one of the simplest yet most important molecules in living systems. It makes up from 50 to 95 percent of the weight of living organisms. The cytoplasm of a cell is a water-based solution that contains a variety of ions, salts, and molecules which make life 'happen.' Water is literally involved in every facet of life.

The simplicity of the water molecule belies the complexity of its properties. Based on its small size and light weight, one can predict how it should behave, yet it remains liquid at a much higher temperatures than expected. It also boilsand freezes at much too high, or low, of a temperature for a molecule of its size. Many of these unexpected properties of water are due to the fact that water molecules are attracted to each other like small magnets (cohesion). This attraction results in turn from the structure of the water molecule and the characteristics of the atoms it contains.
Each molecule of water is made up of two atoms of hydrogen connected to one atom of oxygen, as shown below. This is summarized in the familiar formula, H2O.
Figure 3. Hydrogen Bonding in Water

Atoms are most stable when they have a particular configuration of their outer shells, a concept which will be discussed in future labs. These configurations explain why hydrogen in water will take on a partial positive charge and why oxygen will take on a partial negative charge. These partial charges cause water molecules to 'stick' to each other like magnets. The 'stickiness' in this particular case is due to 'hydrogen bonding'. In this case, hydrogen bonding involves the attraction between the positively charged hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule. As no electrons are actually shared however, hydrogen bonds are much weaker than covalent bonds - they easily break and easily form again.














  Application (Activity)



1.
Water moves to the tops of tall trees due to capillary actionhttp://www.biologylessons.sdsu.edu/ta/classes/lab1/icon2a.gif combined with root pressure and evaporationhttp://www.biologylessons.sdsu.edu/ta/classes/lab1/icon2a.gif from the stomata (openings) in the leaves. Water will also climb up paper, and often the migrating water will carry other molecules along with it. The distance traveled by these other molecules will vary with their mass and charge.

2.
How fast do you think water would climb a strip of absorbent paper about one-half inch wide?
about one inch per ____________________ (time)

3.
Obtain a 50 ml graduated cylinder, and tear off a strip of chromatography paper that is just long enough to hang over the side of the cylinder (inside) and reach to the bottom.

http://www.biologylessons.sdsu.edu/ta/classes/lab1/cylinder.gif

4.
Run the paper strip along the edge of a scissors to take the curl out of it.

5.
Place a single small drop of ink from a black vis-a-vis pen on the paper, about one inch from the bottom, and let it dry completely.
Figure 7. Ink on Chromatography Paper
http://www.biologylessons.sdsu.edu/ta/classes/lab1/chrome.jpeg

6.
Put 10 ml of water into the graduated cylinder and place the strip of paper in the cylinder so that the bottom end is immersed in water and the drop of ink is just above the surface of the water. Fold the paper over the top side.

7.
Note the starting time below.

8.
Watch and note the time at 5 minute intervals. When the water climbs to the top of the paper, remove the paper from the water, and let it dry.

How did the ink change? Glue the paper onto the page here, and label each color on the strip.




Student’s Activity

               “Good Morning Sir!”

    (One Student will lead the Prayer)

   (Students raise their hand and say present as the teacher calls in their name)

(Students pick up the pieces of paper)

       (Students listen attentively)












IV.               Evaluation

1.      Predict what will happen if you add a few drops of a water-soluble dye solution to each of the above graduated cylinders containing water and oil. Will the dye mix with the water, the oil, or both?
2.      Add a few drops of dye to each cylinder. Use a glass stirring rod to penetrate the interface between each layer, giving the dye access to both water and oil. How does the dye behave in each cylinder? Does it diffuse into the oil? Into the water?
V.                 Assignment
“Why is liquid very important not just to humans but to all the living things in the world? –Write on 1 whole sheet of paper
