Water is the universal solvent. It makes life possible on Earth mainly due to its high specific heat capacity. Water freezes a 0C and boils at 100C. Water is a polar molecule. Because of this, it exhibits the properties of cohesion and adhesion. Water reacts with group 1 metals, sometimes explosively.

Consider the paragraph above. What is one chemical property of water?

a) Water is a polar molecule

b) Water is the universal solvent.

c) Water reacts with group 1 metals

d) Water has a high specific heat capacity.

The answer to your question is: c) Water reacts with group 1 metals

Explanation:

A chemical property is a property that shows a change in the original molecule.

a) Water is a polar molecule This is a physical property of water, it doesn't change the original composition of water. This option is incorrect.

b) Water is the universal solvent. This is also a physical property of water, when water dissolves something it continues being water, then this answer is incorrect.

c) Water reacts with group 1 metals Most of the reactions are chemical properties in this example when water reacts with a metal there is a change. This is the right option.

d) Water has a high specific heat capacity. This option is not correct, heat capacity is not a chemical property is a physical one.

it is C!
