ok /sci/ so how can water exist as a liquid at room temperature if elemental oxygen can't?
Van der Waals forces and polarity

Because bonds matter

Add two hydrogen molecules, that's why.
Hydrogen bonds are strong as fuck
>>8795589
so the hydrogen slows down the oxygens vibrations?
>>8795576
tfw you bond covalently with this black queen
>>8795593
No it causes the water molecules to attract to each other more than most molecules of similar size.
Also how come eating table salt doesnt kill you but breathing chlorine does?
>>8795906
Chlorine on its own behaves differently to chlorine and sodium ions.
Hydrogen, Carbon and Nitrogen on their own are all fine but when you put them together it makes Cyanide.
