This is a model of a water molecule. The red represents one atom of the element oxygen, and the white represents two atoms of the element hydrogen. This is why you might hear someone call water “H2O”!

A landmark, three-part series that tells the human story through our relationship to water. We find out how our success is intimately connected to our control of the molecule, but that the growth ...

In basic terms, a snowflake starts as a water molecule that tries to attach to ... just following the same molecular structure of H2O! You might have heard that no two snowflakes are alike but ...
