It turns out that the notion of running out of water is not as far-fetched as we may think. In fact, as we learn in H2O: THE MOLECULE THAT MADE US, water didn’t exist on Earth in the beginning.

From a chemical standpoint, water has unusual properties that make it intricately associated with life. It consists of hydrogen and oxygen atoms bound together, with a chemical formula of H2O.

H2O: The Molecule that Made Us tells the human story through our relationship to water. H2O: The Molecule That Made Us is a 3-hour series from WGBH Boston.

LiveScience: No matter how long you look at it, a water molecule is still just two hydrogen atoms latched onto one oxygen atom. So says a new experiment. IE 11 is not supported.

Engineering researchers have developed a technique to isolate a single water molecule inside a buckyball and drive motion of the "big" nonpolar ball through the encapsulated "small" polar H2O ...

H2O is the molecule everybody knows, and nobody can live without. But for all its familiarity and import for life, aspects of water’s behavior have been hard to pin down, including how it conducts ...
