AI-powered study finds molecular evidence that water may exist as two different liquids
By
Larissa G. Capella
Summary
Scientists have long suspected that water exists as two different liquids at the molecular level — a denser and a less-dense form constantly switching places. Using artificial intelligence, researchers led by physical chemist Xiao Cheng Zeng have now found molecular evidence of this transformation, confirming a long-held hypothesis about water's dual liquid nature.
