Re: hexagonal water?

i read this interesting piece on water, its very mainstream science, but contains some extremeley intersting facts. here are some excerpts.

"Reduction of the hydrogen bonding at high temperatures, or due to electromagnetic fields, results in greater reactivity of the water molecules."

"It has recently been suggested that H1.5O may better reflect the formula at very small (attosecond) timescales when some of the H-atoms appear invisible to neutron and electron interaction [515]. These results have been questioned [630] and are now thought erroneous [796], but such suggestions do add support to the view that observations concerning the structure of water should be tempered by the timescale used."

"Water is a tiny V-shaped molecule with the molecular formula H₂O ^a. In the liquid state, in spite of 80% of the electrons being concerned with bonding, the three atoms do not stay together as the hydrogen atoms are constantly exchanging between water molecules due to protonation/deprotonation processes. Both acids and bases catalyze this exchange and even when at its slowest (at pH 7), the average residence time is only about a millisecond. As this brief period is, however, much longer than the timescales encountered during investigations into water's hydrogen bonding or hydration properties, water is usually treated as a permanent structure."

this last part is intersting to me, i never knew that water molecules were constantly exchanging hydrogen atoms. also this exchange is slowest at exactly 7 ph. this is interesting, as this would mean that water is in its most stable form at 7 ph. this perhapd lends credence to the idea that we should create a slightly alkaline condition within our bodies with a saliva and urine ph of around 7.
