Water

water is solvent
sugar and tea are solute

cohesion: water molecule attracted to other water molecules (polar)
adhesion: water molecule attracted to other substances
surface tension: water together creating the smallest surface area
capillary action: cohesion and adhesion working together moving the water molecule

water has high heat capacity
water as gas: most dense
water as solid: least dense
