Water is a polar molecule.

Four properties of water:

cohesion= attraction of molecules to other molecules of the same kind.

adhesion= attraction of one kind of molecule to a different kind of molecule

capillary action = Upward motion of liquid.

The experimental technique chromatography can be used here.

ability to moderate temperature

expansion upon freezing

versatility as a solvent
