Also, water isn't normally just H2O, but it contains more stuff. We still call that water. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] xor@infosec.pub 12 points 2 years ago (1 child) i see you're trolling so: omg i am so mad at you for pretending to not understand the sentence i just posted or to look up the definition of water... and to say that water without other things in it isn't water... oh my gerd... so mad, kiddo... oh wee oh... so mad.... 🎩 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Goun@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 child) No, sorry, not trolling. I just think water is not A molecule, but a bunch of molecules, so I don't know if technically a molecule of water would count as water. I don't understand the controversy, I didn't mean to offend you. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] drengbarazi@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago I get what you are saying, it is unintuitive that you can call a water molecule water. Because water, when found in nature, is always a mixture, right? Needs more than a single substance to be a mixture. Entertain this, though: a group with a single element is still a group. Wouldn't you say a pure water substance can be reduced to a single water molecule? It still is pure water substance. permalink fedilink source parent
