The molecular weight of H2O has a tetrahedral shape with two lone pairs on each oxygen. With these two lone paris it also causes the molecule to be bent. The molecular mass of H2O is 18.00g.
Water is my favorite molecule simple because we need and use it daily. Did you know that without water the human body can not survive? Water makes up about 60% of your body weight and is used for majority of your body functions. It is used in your cells, organs, and tissues. Water helps keep our body hydrated and without drinking enough of it a day it can and will lead to dehydration. Yes drinking a lot of water is great but we must make sure that we are drinking the right amount for our body. Drinking too much water can be fatal. So as much as water is great for our life it can also kill us. Consuming too water can be dangerous, water is the center of human life. Human life can not go 3-5 days without it!

Your take on water consumption is very interesting because I would have never thought drinking to much water would kill you.
ReplyDeleteI really like how you included water to be the main source of life. It is very important that people know this because it is required for us humans to consume in order to survive. I agree with everything you said about the H2O molecule. Great job!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Essentially it has one of the easiest molecular formulas, but at the same time is sooo crucial to our everyday functions as humans! It was also great, as Jordan also stated above, that you included the danger of water overdose. I was unaware for years that too much water intake could kill you.
