How old is water ?

Answer 1

Most hydrogen and oxygen atoms which comprise water have been around since before the earth aggregated out of the rest of the solar system material. (I do not claim I was around to witness this, you understand, though my atoms, hydrogen, oxygen or otherwise were.)
A number of these hydrogens and oxygens will have formed from nuclear reactions by other elements more recently.

In the chemical form of water the individual H2O combinations will have been much more transitory, having been prone to taking part in many chemical reactions and subsequently being recombined as water.

Furthermore, within a discrete mass of pure water one in 10^7 (dependent on temperature) is at any given moment, dissociated into H+ & OH- before recombining. "Does this still count as the same water?" you must answer for yourself.

Answer 3

well the early universe would have been too hot to contain water but after it cooled there would certainly have been some water vapour or droplets around. most of the elements came from stars, some of which are 5 billion years old.
you could say water is that old.

Answer 4

there is a theory regarding that called big bang theroy
according to which everything was a ball of hot gases which when condenced form a dence ball of matter with a very hot inner core.after so many years a explosion takes place called supernova explosion and b'coz of which the universe was formed.our earth is also the part of that ball.earth was also the ball of hot gases which when condenced form liquid called water
so the conclusion is that the age of water is so many billion years

Answer 5

About 6 thousand to as much as 10 thousand years - unless you trust in the 'evolution' theory - then it's millions or billions or zillions of years old [ depending on the evolutionists' current mood & degree of imagination ]

Answer 6

4 billion years
every things was water

Answer 7

Well the Earth was formed 4.57 billion (4.57×109) years ago, so most likely water was created then.

Answer 8

billionns and trillions of years ago the water was formed the same the day the earth was formed

Answer 9

very old. you can't date it because it's always being recycled although bottled water has expiration dates it doesn't matter. water doesn't degrade or spoil unless you leave it sitting in gunk - then it's contaminated.

Answer 10

As old as world depends on what way you look at it
