WaterPuzzle uses magnets to model water's hydrogen bonds for hands-on classroom exploration
The Quick Take
Water is one of the most essential components of life, and many of its unique properties arise from interactions between its molecules. Hydrogen bonds influence water's physical properties, contribute to the formation of ice crystals and are crucial for normal biological processes. Understanding these interactions is fundamental to chemistry, physics and biology.
