Water Chemistry- Articles

 You know the chemical name of the water is possibly H2O. A water molecule is composed of one oxygen atom bound to two hydrogen atoms. The hydrogen atoms are "attached" to one side of the oxygen atom, resulting in a water molecule having a positive charge on the side where there are hydrogen atoms and a negative charge on the other side, where there is the oxygen atom.Because electrical charges attract opposite, water molecules tend to attract each other, making water type "sticky.The side with the hydrogen atoms (positive charge) attracts a separate water molecule's oxygen side (negative charge). All these water molecules attract each other mean that they appear to clump together.This is why drops of water are actually drops! If it is not for some of the forces on Earth, such as gravity, a drop of water would be shaped like a ball — a perfect sphere. Even though it does not form a perfect sphere on Earth, happy water should be sticky. Water is called the " universal solvent "because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.It means that everywhere water goes, it brings along essential chemicals, minerals , and nutrients, either through the earth or through our bodies. Pure water has a neutral pH. Pure water has a pH of around 7, which is neither acidic nor normal.
