Why is water still chemically surprising?
Category: Chemistry
Status: Queued
Despite being one of the most-studied substances, water exhibits anomalies in density, heat capacity, viscosity and supercooled behaviour that are not fully understood. Proposed explanations include the existence of two distinct liquid phases at low temperature.
Recent experimental and simulation work supports a liquid-liquid critical point, but its parameters remain disputed.
