Is water actually wet? Here's my opinion.

Water isn't actually wet, but it makes whatever it comes into contact with obtain the property "wet". Let's say you put a slice of bread into water, that would make the bread wet. What about if you poured water onto the bread? Yeah, bread would still get wet.

What if you poured water into water? Nothing would happen. Water is water... it cannot change itself with itself.

I don't know why a lot of people have a hard time with this simple dilemma.

I guess if "wet" means "has water stuck to it", water is wet until there is just one molecule of water left. Thanks for the thought, this is the kind of thing I find oddly interesting

"Wet" describes a non-mixing physical interaction between two or more things, one of them being water. Water itself is not wet because the water molecules are mixed together. If you talk about a single water molecule covered by more water molecules, that is not considered wet, that is considered submerged. So the water molecule is submerged in water. Because if you cover yourself with an amount of water millions of times the mass of your body, then you will not be wet, you will be submerged. The same thing happened with a single water molecule covered by millions of water molecules; it does not make that molecule wet, it makes it submerged.

So no. Water is not wet. But you can make something else wet with water.

To be wet water needs to come into contact with something else and change its properties, water can be frozen, boiled but can't be made wet.

well there you go.... learnt something new today :lol:

Honestly the water is wet thing is kind of redicilous xD So many split opinions
