Why do people think water and h2o are the same?
Most people think that because water IS H2O. If you think that information from a latter-day science changes the nature of the word “water”, then what you’re really asking about is semantics and I suggest that you consult a dictionary. In my big OXFORD, water is definitionally H2O. H20 combined with C6H12O6 is chemically different than h20, but it’s still recognizable as sugar and water. Moreover, since the sediments and minerals describe above are not water soluble, it’s fair to said that they don’t actually mix chemically with the water. They might dissociate in water, but the h20 molecule is still h20 even if found cascading over granite.
