Water is H2O which composed of Two Hydrogen and One Oxygen. They are both gases. If you look the Hydrogen in the electron microscope you will see a blue color element that is why the water sometimes looks like a blue color. Oxygen is colorless element. It seems that pure water is a blue color. Some believed that the water from the ocean reflected in the sky, that is why the water looks like blue. But on my opinion, I would say that if you look at the tiny particles of water you can see color in it, whereas if you just look the water on your naked eye you just see that it is colorless. Anyhow by nature, we can distinguished colorless things so as to show the difference between colored stuffs and which aren't colored. It is an ordinary miracle! How science so facinating with these too.

Water does have a color and it is somewhat blue, but it isn't as blue as it appears at the surface. Most of the blue you see is the result of the sky reflecting off of the water, however deep below the surface of the water, this no longer has any effect. You will find, if you shined a very bright white light in the depths of the ocean, the water will have a blue tinge.

water reflects the lights the sun throws at us. if we were to have a canopy of water overhead then we would have better air. The sky would be bluer. The only reason the sky changes colors is because of the water that floats around in the atmosphere. the different colors reflect at different angles. water has no color. but it reflects all colors.

the fluid in our eyes is mostly water.

Vitreous humour (British spelling) or Vitreous humor (U.S. spelling) is the clear aqueous solution that fills the space between the lens and the retina of the vertebrate eyeball. The solution is 99% water, but has a gelatinous viscosity two to four times that of water.

as water-based organisms, humans' eyes happen to be able to *perceive* that portion of the electomagnetic spectrum that is essentailly "transparent" with regard to water.

This is not a coincidence. Shorter or longer wavelengths are "color" for water .. we just don't see it, and mostly the atmosphere on earth doesn't allow these wavelengths to propogate either ... again, not a coincidence.

'View it' with the "horse before the cart" and not v-vs.

It does have a color. Pure water absorbs light in the red portion of the spectrum, and scatters very little. Therefore you get the blue end of the spectrum reflected back.
You could have googled that.

In order to have color a substance must absorb certain wavelengths of light in the visible region of the spectrum (400-800nm). Water does not.

Colours we see have to do with the particles that make up the medium. Their level of opacity or transparency is also determined by the physical makeup (primarily, orientation of the particles).

In the same way that light passing through the gases in the atmosphere at certain angles gives us the colour of the sky, so too, would certain wavelengths of colour be scattered through a liquid medium.
water with few to no impurities tends not to scatter visible light much, in terms of blocking certain colours from the receptors in your eyes, so it appears "clear."

Water has no colour because its not composed up of one or more transitional metals. Its only the transitional metals that give off colour. Why? Because of the variable d-orbital.
