	Water - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Water (from the Old English word wæter; c.f German "Wasser", from PIE wod-or, "water") is a tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless (it has a slight hint of blue*) substance in its pure form that is essential to all known forms of life and is known also as the most universal solvent.
		Water is a very good solvent, chemically not unlike ammonia, and dissolves many types of substances, such as various salts and sugar, and facilitates their chemical interaction, which aids complex metabolisms.
		Polluting water may be the biggest single misuse of water; to the extent that a pollutant limits other uses of the water, it becomes a waste of the resource, regardless of benefits to the pollutor.

	Molecular vibration and absorption of water molecules (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Variations in the environment around each liquid water molecule gives rise to considerable line broadening with vibration shifts in a hydrogen-bond-donating water molecule being greater than in a hydrogen-bond accepting molecule but both acting in the same direction [679], and accumulating with the number of hydrogen bonds.
		In liquid water the molecular stretch vibrations shift to higher frequency, on raising the temperature (as hydrogen bonding weakens, the covalent O-H bonds strengthen causing them to vibrate at higher frequencies) whereas the intramolecular vibrations shift to lower frequencies and the molecular bend vibration peak both shifts to lower frequencies and becomes narrower [696].
		The sky is blue due to molecular light scattering, with neither tiny air-borne particles nor its small and variable content of gaseous water having significant effect [710].

	Why is water blue? (vibrations rotations)
		Heavy water is colorless because all of its corresponding vibrational transitions are shifted to lower energy by the increase in isotope mass.
		Water is unique among the molecules of nature in its high concentration of OH bonds and in its plentiful supply.
		However, water and ice are the only two chemical substances we normally have the opportunity to observe in pure form in sufficiently large bulk so that a weak coloration becomes detectable.

	WHY IS WATER BLUE
		Because the absorption which gives water its color is in the red end of the visible spectrum, one sees blue, the complementary color of red, when observing light that has passed through several meters of water.
		To our knowledge the intrinsic blueness of water is the only example from nature in which color originates from vibrational transitions.
		However, the changes are small enough that the color of water should not vary significantly with temperature between 0 and 50º C. e are not the first to call attention to the vibrational origin of water's blue color.

	Cherenkov radiation
		In a medium such as water, the speed of light is considerably less than the speed of light in vacuum.
		Because the particle is moving faster than the speed of light in water, it can trigger a cascade of photons which are in phase with each other and can constructively interfere to form the visible blue glow.
		The blue glow in the water surrounding nuclear reactors is Cherenkov radiation.

	Water really is blue! Who knew? \| MetaFilter
		As I said, it's from the physics community, and their assertion is that the misconception of "water is blue because the sky is blue" is common and widespread, and could be usefully attacked by physics instructors in the classroom in order to stimulate thinking.
		Pure water in the mountains is blue: I'd always assumed this was because of fine suspended particles, but it could be inherent in the water.
		The magnitude of the diffuse transmission coefficient for incident light is dependent on the sun zenith angle, atmospheric conditions, the refractive index of the water and the sea state.

	ask mr. science - page 1: fruit, words, water rockets, blue sky
		Only blues, and a very few yellows scatter back out of the atmosphere into space: the earth looks blue for the same reason that the sky is blue.
		Not really; the blues that get scattered out of the straight path when you look up through the atmosphere can reach your eye without scattering when you're in space.
		Here you take clear container of water (preferably something with flat sides, like a small aquarium; I had a rectangular clear plastic storage container from my kitchen), fill it with water, and shine a flashlight through it (try to get the brightest one you can find, maybe even a slide projector).

		Many of these systems use a small pump to re-circulate hot water to allow for instant hot water at spigots, or may be used in cases where there is an excessively long run of pipe from the water heater to an area of a house.
		The blue color is imparted to the water because of the high concentration of copper in the water.
		Several factors, including high water velocities, improperly reamed pipe ends, and excessive flux use can contribute to erosion or corrosion of the copper tubing.

		Blues was the music that inspired most of the successful bands, but Steve was also very interested in jazz and rhythm and blues.
		You might conclude that this band didn't know to make a choice between blues or jazz, but to me that's simply the strongest point in their music.
		It's strange to see that a great album like this, which is still part of the history of a number of well-known groups who all have their own part in musical history, could have been forgotten.
