Because you didn't specify what kind of question you wanted asked and that's what they thought of? Maybe he/she wanted to come up with something that they thought you couldn't answer?
So here's a question for you....
Why ask a generic question, when apparently, you were looking for something more specific.

Water is wet because it is a compound that has been "quickened."
2H2O is the correct equation for water.
The "wet" that is felt from water is the residue from the hydrogen. Hydrogen is a light,explosive gas...
Oxygen is a dry, heavy gas.
Oxygen acts as a "lubricant." Allowing other molecules to move freely. Being a dry molecule, they will bond to "heavier" molicules.
"Quicksand" is dry...yet one will sink in it. The sand is coated with oxygen molecules...The grains of sand are "lubricated."
I recommend that you look up the meaning of "inertia."

because of the hydrogen and oxygen molecules mixing nad it makes water...the way that they are arranged makes them stay together making water drip..
