Where is fllodtl when we need him?

Phase diagram of water under high pressure
is shown here:
http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/water/phase.html

1 million bar is 100 GPa. At these pressures
at room tempertures water will freeze, or
more accurately, crystallize into ice
modifications VII and, above 1 Mbar into ice X.

Liquid nitrogen cannot be produced by
compression of nitrogen at room temperatures,
its critical point is 126K = -147C.

Hello,

If you see the graphic here http://images.encarta.msn.com/xrefmedia/aencmed/targets/illus/cha/T073590A.gif, you may notice that liquid water remain in the same state even if the pressure is changing! But the boiling point would be considerably more than 100 degree

So

It would become a solid very very quickly!!!

Here's a link to water's phase diagram:

If you compress any liquid or gas to the extreme it will change phase. This is exactly how big chemical corporations like DuPont and Praxair create Liquid Nitrogen among others.

You will get one of the phases of ice, Ice X. It is symmetric and has a melting point between 1000K and 2400K.

It will turn into one of the more exotic phases of ice, like Ice X and Ice XI.

assuming you have no leaks and a container that will withstand the pressures, the water will hold the weight as it cannot be compressed.

By the way, I stole this from Alexander a while back.

You will get very high pressure water.
