![]() | Water was one of the Natural sciences good articles, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. | |||||||||||||||

“The decomposition requires more energy input than the heat released by the inverse process (285.8 kJ/mol, or 15.9 MJ/kg).” This is in clear violation of conservation of energy. Perhaps what they intended to say was that electrolytic decomposition is not 100% efficient? Mindyobusiness12 ( talk) 13:46, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Created by Chemification ( talk). Self-nominated at 06:12, 2 July 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Water; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
The second paragraph in the article as it exists now says the followiing: 'Because Earth's environment is relatively close to water's triple point'. Wander over to 'triple point' and it says that the pressure of water at the triple point is:
'vapor pressure of 611.657 pascals (6.11657 mbar; 0.00603659 atm)'. This is a lot closer to the atmospheric pressure of Mars, and is well below the Armstrong limit.
Water also does not magically change into Nitrogen and Nitrogen into water using some nuclear process either.
Lies sound cool because lying is cool ... NOT. What arguments do people have here that this is not a lie? I think that should be taken out of the article.

a link in the infobox for the word Oxidane would be nice (it redirects to a nomenclature section, currently located at Properties of water#Nomenclature, information not currently found in this article). However, looking at how this infobox is configured (pulled through from the chembox template), I'm actually not at all sure how one would go about adding that. So I'm leaving this comment instead -- Tomatoswoop ( talk) 20:43, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
