When was water created is it constantly recycled and can it be destroyed????

Question

I asked when at what point or is it constantly being created.

Answer 1

The hydrogen part of water was created in the big bang 14 billion years ago. The oxygen part of water was created inthe heart of a dying star and blown out into space when it went super nova. The two elements combined in the nebula cloud that gave birth to our solar system forming ice crystals. That is why we find water ice all through our solar system. Most of Earth's water has been here ever since the Earth formed about 4.5 billion years ago a little has been lost to space over time and not as much is still coming down via meteors. Water is taken apart and reassembled all the time by plants and animals. A small fraction of water is split into hydrogen and oxygen by lightening. We can split water apart into hydrogen and oxygen using electorlosis. Burning hydrogen produces water as a by product.

Answer 2

Water was created soon after the earth was formed.
The molten earth was boiling hot, and the basic atoms of
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen and Nitrogen were present in
the "soup".
Water was created when 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom connected in the frantic energetic, boiling soup.
It is constantly recycled through evaporation (ie clouds) and perspiration. This is the reason for rain, snow, humidity and drought.
The water cycle and states can be destroyed by pollution and from tremendous force to separate water into hydrogen, hydrogen and oxgen atoms.

Answer 3

When was water created?
- its unsure when water was "created".. in my astronomy class 2years ago we were taught that the earth had a bit of water on it, but most of today's water came from ice particles on asteroids that crashed onto an early earth.

Is it constantly recycled?
- yes. water is constantly moving through the water cycle. (rain, flowing to oceans, evaporation, turns to clouds, rains again,.. )

Can it be destroyed?
- i have no idea, but i have wondered this before. we know water is made up of 2hydrogen and 1oxygen. could we split it apart and have lots of a hydrogen and half as much oxygen? if we could do that, surely we could throw some hydrogen and oxygen together and get lab produced water.. but really, i never paid enough attention in chemistry class to know the answer to this question. hopefully someone else does know :)

Answer 4

water is a molecule composed of three atoms, 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom
water can be in three states and still be considered water; it can be a gas (vapour); a solid (ice); or a liquid (water). when these three atoms combine, we have a water molecule, when they break up, we have atoms.
It is the nature of atoms to join with others, by a fixed set of rules and through a fixed process. Water molecules can be found throughout the universe, primarily as ice crystals, so I think it is likely that water has been around, was "created" at the same time as the universe, or as hydrogen and oxygen atoms (I think they are as old as the universe)
as to destroying water, what do you mean by destroyed. You can dismantle a water molecule and end up with its atoms, in a sense, you have destroyed the water, or at least eliminated it.
You can destroy atoms (but the effect is a deadly one; nuclear bomb; even one atom being destroyed can be seriously dangerous) in the sense that you can dismantle them, too sort of like breaking apart a molecule, only instead of having atoms left, I think you end up with neutrons and electrons, etc.
Yes, water is constantly recycled, if by that you mean water molecules are constantly migrating between the three states of matter; liquid, solid, gas.

Answer 5

1) It is created at the beginning of the age of Earth.It is formed by chemically combining hydrogen and oxygen via intense heat.

2) It is constantly recycled through urination, evaporation and transpiration into the air.Remember the water cycle.

3)It can be destroyed by conducting electicity through water and it separates water back into hydrogen and oxygen.

Answer 6

Water was formed from outgasses as the Earth started cooling 4.6 billion yrs ago.Yes, it is conctantly recycled. no, it can't be destroyed. It changes form, can be seperated into Hydrogen and oxygen, but it will eventually return to water.

Answer 7

You can separate the Hydrogen from the oxygen, and in a sense that is destroying water. However, if burnt it combines again

Answer 8

no one knows how water was created, but through belief and religion people believe it came from god. you also would know that water cannot really be destroyed and that there is a whole process that water goes through known as the water cycle.

Answer 9

It is constantly recycled in one way or another.

Answer 10

yes, it's when oxygen met 2 hydrogen and decided to share it's electrons with them both.... u an't destry as it will form back some way or another...coz it's constantly recycled
