Warum ist Wasser ein ganz besonders edler Tropfen? : Erklärungen rund ums H2O
Die einmaligen Eigenschaften der Wassermoleküle fassen die Autoren in diesem Überblick zusammen.
Water is such a special molecule that
its abundance is generally regarded
as prerequisite for the existence of
any form of biological life. This special
role in the chemical universe can
be traced back to its charge polarisation
in combination with the ability
to readily form a flexible network
with four neighbouring water molecules.
This unique combination of
properties is not provided by any
other small molecule and gives rise
to peculiarities that are seen as essential
for life.
