Which of the following statements about water's ability to stabilize temperature are correct?
Water absorbs heat with a large change in its own temperature.
Water acts as a 'heat bank' by absorbing or releasing heat.
Life could not exist in bodies of water if there were drastic temperature changes.
Water stabilizes temperatures on Earth.

Ice is less dense than liquid water
Ice is heavier than liquid water
Ice has more heat than liquid water
Ice is more acidic than liquid water
36
37
Multiple Select
Which of the following statements about the pH scale are correct?
A pH of 7 is neutral

Multiple Choice
Why is a water molecule considered polar?
Because oxygen and hydrogen share electrons equally
Because the oxygen atom has a stronger attraction for electrons than hydrogen
Because both ends of the molecule are positive
Because water molecules are always neutral
43
Multiple Choice
Why is it important for cells to control their pH, and how do buffers help in this process?
Because extreme pH levels can affect chemical reactions in cells, and buffers prevent sudden changes in pH.
Because buffers make the cell membrane stronger.
Because cells need to stay acidic at all times.
Because buffers increase the temperature of cells.
