Where did water come from?
Scientists have long debated whether the Earth’s water was here when the planet formed or whether it arrived later. A study suggests much of the water originated in rocks from which Earth is built. AUDIE CORNISH, HOST: Water is everywhere on Earth – the clouds, the rain, the oceans and rivers, even our own bodies.
How is water created?
We are all made of atoms stuck together (or, as scientists would say, “bonded”). Atoms bonded together form molecules. A molecule of pure water is made of two hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom.
Who made water?
Who discovered the water? It was the chemist Henry Cavendish (1731 – 1810), who discovered the composition of water, when he experimented with hydrogen and oxygen and mixed these elements together to create an explosion (oxyhydrogen effect).
Who created water?
The new research suggests that Earth’s water came from both rocky material, such as asteroids, and from the vast cloud of dust and gas remaining after the sun’s formation, called the solar nebula.
Can we create water?
Is it possible to make water? Theoretically, it is possible. You would need to combine two moles of hydrogen gas and one mole of oxygen gas to turn them into water. However, you need activation energy to join them together and start the reaction.
Does the Earth lose water?
While our planet as a whole may never run out of water, it’s important to remember that clean freshwater is not always available where and when humans need it. In fact, half of the world’s freshwater can be found in only six countries. Also, every drop of water that we use continues through the water cycle.
Can water be destroyed?
The Hydrological Cycle: Water Is Neither Created Nor Destroyed, It Is Merely Transformed.
Who invented walk?
A hominin whose anatomy was so like our own that we can say it walked as we do did not appear in Africa until 1.8 million years ago. Homo erectus was the first to have the long legs and shorter arms that would have made it possible to walk, run and move about Earth’s landscapes as we do today.
