STRUCTURE OF ICE ! ANGELA & BRIAN ~ A 9 2 3 ACROSTIC SONNET !

 

ICE & SNOW ~ HAVE THE SAME STRUCTURE AS DIAMOND ~ BEAUTIFUL !

 

STRUCTURE (MOLECULAR) OF ICE CRYSTALS is the same as DIAMOND

Three dimensional and perfect Hexagons ~ each SNOWFLAKE is a

Regular hexagon ~ each one is different ! SNOW reflects light ~ so

Usually ~ in Scandinavia ~ a snowfall transforms the whole landscape !

CARBON ATOM can combine with four other CARBON ATOMS .......

Thereby producing a DIAMOND ~ which is three dimensional & sparkles !

Unexpectedly in ICE ~ each water molecule (H-O-H) also combines .......

Regularly with four other water molecules in a DIAMOND STRUCTURE !

Explains why ICE is so hard  ! Remember TITANIC  ~ split by an ICEBERG !

 

ONE of the many beauties of ICE is it reflects LIGHT ~ and early morning

FROST on a SPIDER WEB is one of NATURES most dramatic sculptures !

 

ICE CUBES are precious in the current EUROPEAN WEATHER (40C = 100+ F) ~ each

CUBE requires Latent Heat of Fusion to melt it  ~ this cools down your drink ~ simple !

Every property of ICE is amazing !  NEVER take ~ ICE - WATER - STEAM ~ for granted !
