It’s weird how oxygen and hydrogen, two very flammable elements on their own, can be combined to be something that is known for its ability to put out a fire.
If you think about it, it's very flammability is the reason. Water is the product of a combustion reaction, so smothering a reaction with it's product will make it stop. Le Chatlier's Principal.
Water has nothing to do with H or O . At a macroscopic level you can't think of a substance as the sum of elements it composed of. Oxygen is one thing Hydrogen is one thing and Oxygen hydride is completely another thing.
im pretty sure the reason water puts out fire is because it takes away the heat (high specific heat capacity) instead of suffocating it from oxygen, like most people think (obviously doesnt take away fuel)
Im glad our world has people as smart as this guy, seriously it's people like this guy that brings us all more understanding,thank you for what you do and how you do it,I hope you keep doing this content.
This video really made me understand much stuff from school related topics which I’ve learned many years ago and even till this day have in college. And you mixed chemistry as well as biology I love that! Maybe even arguably physics
Honestly, water scares me. Like wtf is this perfect, anomalous substance which behaved differently from everything and can dissolve basically anything?

Dude: just thank you for this video. The amount of precise and simple but essential information is outstanding: from the Chemical structure of Water to it's importance from a Biology point of view. Most people doesn't appreciate good science videos, and there are plenty of channels that just publish random videos or some with too much information so: well done lad 😁👌. Keep the good work💪.
This channel is so great at explaining really basic components of our world in a very deep and thorough way, but without having to have a degree in organic chemistry. Thanks!
Good explanation. I saw similar explanations of water's properties in lectures on chemistry. Water is in fact my favorite drink when I'm thirsty. (When I said that to a former co-worker he claimed "But beer tastes better!". Actually I disagree. I find nothing tastes better than a cold glass of water when I am thirsty. Besides far from quenching your thirst alcohol actually depletes your body of water. Your body tries to get the alcohol out of your system [alcohol is actually a poison] and it takes more water to do so than the amount of fluid you took in with the alcohol. That is why you are thirsty after a night of drinking. Drinking sea water depletes your body of water for a similar reason; your body is trying to get the salt out that you ingested with the sea water.). I might add the old adage to drink eight glasses of water a day is incorrect. That figure was derived from a misinterpretation of a study several decades ago. The people who came up with the eight glasses a day figure failed to take into account the amount of water we get from solid foods (which the study considered). Drinking too much water could dilute you too much. The best advice is to drink when you're thirsty. An exception is when you are exercising; then you should drink more. (I can't understand why some athletes take a drink of water and then immediately spit it out, as if they only need to get the inside of their mouth wet. I've seen hockey players doing this. Your body needs water when exercising.)
I feel thinking water tastes best is a regional thing. I was ridiculously addicted to pop living at home, but when i went to uni in wales, i drank nothing but water as it was great. Now i'm back home i'm back on a litre of pop a day. Mad how sensitive the tongue is to mineral balance
@@TheMajorpickle01 I don't like the taste of my tap water (moreover it is never very cold) so I buy four litre jugs of spring water which I keep in my fridge.
Are we sure processing alcohol is fast because the body wants to rid itself of a "poison"? Maybe it favors the alcohol. Which chocolates do you eat in a variety box? Do you eat your favorite ones first? Or do you gobble the ones you like less to get the unpleasant experience over with as soon as possible? Bodies appear to adore opiats, or are they processing the poison as fast as it can?
@@Misses-Hippy Every once in a while I read or hear someone make a remark that is so far out in left field I am momentarily speechless, wondering if there really are people that naive in this world (or perhaps I am conversing with a space alien). Your comment was one of those. After my initial disbelief I considered the possibility you are joking, but that doesn't appear to be the case. You actually believe our bodies favor alcohol and it is not a poison? Have you never heard of people dying of alcohol poisoning from drinking too much? Or of cirrhosis of the liver from long term alcohol abuse? Your analogy with eating chocolates is completely inappropriate. A person MAY choose to eat his favorites first or last (or perhaps not bothering to eat the ones he doesn't like at all) but that is a conscious choice dictated by taste (which has no correlation to what is good or bad for our body). Our bodies do not consciously "choose" to get alcohol out of our system but do so because they have been genetically programmed to rid our bodies of poisons due to thousands of years of evolution. I have to question the intelligence of anyone who needs this explained to him/her. The only other possibility is you are an alcoholic desperately looking for any excuse to continue drinking. (This is reminiscent of smokers who derive the most ridiculous excuses to continue smoking. One fellow once told me, in a preposterous attempt to justify continuing to smoke, that we can get cancer from cabbage. Even if that ridiculous assertion was true, how does that justify greatly increasing the risk of contracting cancer by smoking? It's analogous to him saying he could drown by going swimming so he may as well not bother wearing a life jacket while boating. And I will add that the most common smoking related disease is heart disease, not cancer.) If so I urge you to seek help to end your addiction. I have seen for myself what alcohol abuse does to individuals and families. There was an alcoholic in my family and some of my relatives had problems with alcohol. As a start I recommend you watch some of the "intervention" videos on UA-cam of people trying to help family or friends with alcohol or drug problems.
This was a great video, thank you! Does anyone know of good resources to learn a bit more in detail about what's discussed around 3:41? I'd like to get a better understanding of the inter-molecular bonds water can form with itself and why water can flow around so easily. How come when the water molecules move around each other, the hydrogen bonds aren't broken? Or are they just constantly broken and reform? I tried to find videos discussing this but didn't have much luck, so recommendations of videos or articles would be appreciated. Thanks
This is such a great video! That animation showing why ice is less dense than liquid water is one of the best examples of understanding through clever animation I have ever seen. Just one suggestion: There is another extraordinary property of water which isn't mentioned - Water has incredibly high surface tension (compared to other common liquids), which enables strong capillary action, which allows plants and tall trees to lift life-giving water to amazing heights. This wouldn't be possible if water was like other liquids. I'd love to see another of your fantastic animations to explain why that is.
The one thing you pointed out that actually surprised me was the perfect explanation of why ice being boyant on water was such a crucial thing for life on our planet. Thank you for this video.
Well, to be fair, that was something which was useful/convenient to life on our planet, not crucial. He said otherwise the poles would have used up much more of Earth's water during an ice age, and life at the poles would have died, but life would have continued elsewhere on Earth.
The narrator said that for the sake of emphasis. Scientifically, you’d consider it to be the other way round: life evolved to be based on water because of its availability and properties on Earth and in Earth’s environment temperature and pressure ranges. On other planets, other substances with different properties that water doesn’t have, would make them more favourable for the development of complex chemistry into what we could consider “life”. But I respect beliefs, so as long as creationism makes your life better and you a better human, it is fine. Cheers.
6:30 “Global warming” and global cooling. Specific heat affects warming and cooling. 8:00 Interesting fact: Blast freezing, or rapidly removing thermal energy prevents water molecules from forming that lattice. Some fruits are packaged this way to maintain the cellular structure that water generally destroys as it expands and destroys cell walls. This is what makes thawed plant life mushy and slimy. 9:30 Too much water has the opposite effect of causing cells to burst which makes water toxic at high enough levels.
A great explanation, but the free electron orbitals on water would be rotated 90 degrees. I think you may have done this on purpose to more easily show hydrogen bonding in 2D but it really takes away from this. Especially when you show the 3D crystalline structure.
Wow you found one TINY flaw in this otherwise flawless video and you’re really gonna be like that? It takes NOTHING away from the video, get over yourself.
The biofilm on this planet is really miraculous. It’s like a time delay that takes all these photons that usually hit a rock and make some heat and that’s it and instead guide it into a battery system where those photons power all this complex chemical storage.
Yes, and there is so much more ! Each year passing reveals new tricks and properties of water, a number of ice states, an number of interaction with infrared light or other rays, macromolecular organisation, the role in the complexes (like argilo-humic complex, or its role with soap) etc. etc. Even if today we can fill a library just about water, the space of the unknowns or misunderstood mechanisms of water is even greater. cleaning electronics with distilled water, or telescope mirrors is amazing, since distilled water enable to clean down to the unwanted atom that would be soluble. and it does not conduct electricity. And then you can dig deep into water as it forms clouds, then rain/snow/hail and the particulate behaviour with gravity or with charges making them stay in the air like also as a vector for viruses.
Simple, water's a very good solvent. And the chemical reactions for life need to happen within a liquid. In humans, these reactions happen most efficiently at higher temperatures. Which is why all animals need heat to survive. Especially cold-blooded animals. Warm blooded animals can make heat by literally burning our food. The reaction that produces bodyheat from our food is the exact same redox reaction that happens with fire, but much slower and more controlled. As a result, humans actually require a LOT of energy to live. Just sitting still, we use up about 100 joules of energy per second. By comparison, lifting a 1kg (2lb) weight up by 1 meter (1 yard) uses 10 joules of energy. If you drop that weight on the floor, that huge thud it makes is most of those 10 joules being converted to sound energy.
this excellent video has been up for 2 years and nearly all the comments are from only days ago....and likely the veiws. youtube is such a piece of crap. pushing twerking videos while gold like this is shelved in the dark recesses
10:10 "And remember to hydrate"... Yes, But also remember to NOT BUY PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES! It's stupid! Buy a proper bottle, fill it with tapwater (where safe to do so) and REUSE it.
Water can also form something called the "Exclusion Zone state" (or EZ water) around charged surfaces. In experiments, shining red wavelength light on water near a charged surface, caused the water to repel nearby particulates, probably due to something like forming a semi-gel state around the surface that forces away the particulate. In the cell, charges are incredibly abundant, and red light is known to have metabolism stimulating effects, so the properties of water are probably necessary for even just maintaining the basic structure of a cell. Cancer cells are known to be more water-containing, and the water is less structured, and the wetter a tumor is the more dangerous it is. For more info, look up Gerald Pollack, researcher at washington state
Somewhere in the Andromeda galaxy there is some nerd making a video on why methane is so critical to their planet and their biology basing their entire evaluation of the compound on the fact that life has not yet been observed to use a different solvent.
I knew the basic "its a solvent" but the detail here is amazing, the animations really help understanding the processes.
