Previously, science taught the three different states that water could exist were solid ice, liquid water or vapor gas. Recently, the international team of scientists revealed the new discovery of the two different states of water.

Rain, snow, and cloud are all made up of water. Rain is liquid water and cloud is made up of tiny water droplets. Snow is a solid ice crystal, which is also comprised of water. Water is one of the most fundamental compounds on Earth.

The International Journal of Nanotechnology revealed the physical properties of water change behavior at between 50 degrees and 60 degrees Celsius. The temperature hits a crossover temperature and appeared to switch between two different states of liquid. When the liquid water switched states, it exhibited whole new properties and phases.

The second state of liquid water takes two hydrogen atoms in a shape of an oxygen tip arrow. The new state of water contained unusual molecular structure. The phases are the state of matter which made from atoms and molecules.

The molecules can be arranged in a certain configuration depending on the total energy of the matter. This discovery will be helpful to nanotechnology and biology. Water molecules maintain only short-lived connections between each molecule and these hydrogen bonds may far weaker than the link of the individual hydrogen and oxygen atoms inside the molecules.

The hydrogen bonds between molecules maintain an order at low temperatures but eventually could take a second in a less-ordered liquid phase at higher temperatures. The special structure of the water molecule has the electrons which tend to be distributed in an asymmetric way that keeps the oxygen side negatively charged relative to the hydrogen.

The properties of water tend to be differing from those of other liquids in such a divergent behavior. The water's second state is reminiscent of liquid crystals. The new discovery directs to the vital fundamental structure of water which is the essential component of all life on Earth.
