When a piece of paper with words on it is placed behind a clear jar of water the letters seem to change size. Some appear larger, and others appear smaller. Why does this happen? What is light doing to make the letters appear differently?

because of the process of refraction of light.

Explanation:

Note, the term refraction refers to the process which results in the bending of light as it passes through a medium. This bending of light can make objects become magnified (or larger), or even smaller.

In this scenario, as the light passes slowly through water it affects how we perceive the objects (the words on the paper) behind the jar (more likely a glass jar). In other words, the light combined with the water refracts (changes direction of) the lights our eyes can see, making the letters seem to change size.

convalent bond :

is a chemical bond formed by the sharing of electron between 2 atoms.

it is the direct chemical bond between 2 atoms.

in bond formation atoms are involved here.

electrovalent bond:

is a chemical bond defined as electroststic attraction between 2 atoms.

it is the electrostatic attraction between 2 atoms.

in bond formation, ions are involved here.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
