When H And O Got Talking...

This is a tale...

A tale revolving around the Chemistry of the fact...

Nah!

Not a Round Table Conference...

This is a Periodic Table Conference...


~~~

Where The Elements Had To Be Grouped Together...

Into Compounds For A Chemically Calm (And Composed) World...

~~~

First Things First...

In Periodicity...

~~~

Who Comes First, You Ask?

Why, Numero Uno - Hydrogen It Is...

~~~

So, Uno H had been called upon to try if it was 'philic' or 'phobic' to its comrades...

Turns out none of He, Li, Be, B, C or N were deserving of H's affinity...

~~~

Numero Ocho O - Oxygen had H bonding with it, with all its affinity...

Now, O was an attractive one...

So much so, one of H's comrades tagged along to pair up with O...

~~~

So now, there were two of the H's and one O...

And their Chemistry gave the world...

WATER!

Dihydrogen Monoxide...

~~~

However...

The Two H's Fought...

Fought For The O...

And O Wasn't Ready...

To Let Either Of The H's Go...

~~~
This fact affected their bond and strain developed...

So much so, that O distanced itself from the H's...

And, the H's were at loggerheads too...

See...


~~~

And then...

So much of activity brewed up a dynamic equilibrium...

The one of Solid Ice, Liquid Water & Vapor Steam...

~~~

All three states - Solid Liquid Gas - Three in One?

The Periodics were so amazed at this triple state equilibrium that...

Water was officially announced to be the most abundant compound on Earth!

~~~

And, so, we come to know of Water as it is, in its present state...

Tasteless...

Odorless...

Colorless...

Still, With A Hint Of Blue...

~~~

Hydrogen & Oxygen Teamed Up...

In That Periodic Table Conference...

To Give...

WATER...


~~~

The One Which Sustains All Life...

Be It Flora Or Fauna...

The Universal Solvent...

Hydrogen & Oxygen Paired Up For Eternity...

In A Two Is To One...



~~~

The One...

The Magical Compound...

The One - The Heart Of Existence...

Numero Uno & Numero Ocho...

Dihydrogen Monoxide!
