It is essential to the life that appeared on Earth three billion years ago. It can exist in three forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor. This molecule has astonishing properties: of all products, water has one of the highest surface tensions, enabling it to wet and penetrate everywhere. It is also characterized by a high specific heat, and one of the highest heats of vaporization: it can therefore store large quantities...
