چکیده
Water is essential for sustaining life on Earth. Almost 75% of the Earth’s surface is covered by it. It composes roughly 70% of the human body by mass [1]. It is the medium associated with nearly all microscopic life processes. Much of the reason that water can sustain life is due to its unique properties. Among the most essential and extreme properties of water is its capability to absorb large amounts of heat. The heat capacity of water, which is the

متن کاملStudy on morphology and growth of water–ice grains spontaneously generated in a laboratory plasma
An apparatus has been developed to study the nucleation, growth, and morphology of water–ice grains spontaneously generated in a weakly ionized plasma having very cold neutral particles. Nucleation of water–ice grains in the laboratory experiment occurs only when plasma exists but the plasma density is not too high. Nonspherical, fast growth occurs when the mean free path of water molecules exc...
