As a result, structures such as rings or chains of water molecules can form in the liquid. The structure of liquid water is therefore not just a random arrangement of individual water molecules ...

An equilibrium is achieved when the weight of the water column is equal to the pressure differential over the cross-sectional area of the liquid-gas interface (Jury & Horton 2004). The structure ...

In ice, water molecules are arranged in a repeating pattern that gives ice its crystal structure. Even though ice is at 0 °C, the molecules still vibrate. After freezing, the water molecules are ...

Water isn't just liquid, ice, or vapor — under extreme conditions, it can transform into exotic phases, such as the newly observed plastic ice VII. This hybrid phase, predicted years ago but only ...
