Molecular graphic of a molecule of water
Water molecule. Computer graphic of a molecule of water (H20). The dotted spheres are a Van Der Waals representation of the atoms. The water molecule consists of a central oxygen atom (red) combined with two hydrogen atoms (white). The bond angle between the hydrogen atoms is about 110 degrees (depending on the physical state of the water). Water is essential to all life forms on Earth, and covers about 70% of the Earths surface

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a molecular graphic of the fundamental building block of life - water. Created through computer graphics, this image beautifully illustrates the intricate structure of a water molecule (H2O). The Van Der Waals representation is depicted by dotted spheres, providing a visual understanding of the atoms involved. At its core lies an oxygen atom, distinguished by its vibrant red hue, which forms strong bonds with two hydrogen atoms represented in pure white. These three elements come together to create the iconic shape that we associate with water molecules. Interestingly, depending on its physical state, such as liquid or gas, the bond angle between the hydrogen atoms can vary around 110 degrees. Water's significance cannot be overstated; it is indispensable for all known life forms on our planet and covers approximately 70% of Earth's surface. This remarkable substance plays a vital role in various biological processes and serves as an essential component for sustaining ecosystems worldwide. Captured by Science Photo Library, this extraordinary molecular graphic not only highlights the elegance found within nature but also emphasizes how science and technology can visually represent complex concepts like chemistry at their finest.
