Water isn’t wet, and the reason to that is already said above.
So what? Do we call water dry then?
Nope, according to chemistry – dry elements or compounds are those which don’t have any water molecules in them at all! Such as dry ice, dry water (yes, that exists) etc. Water can’t be called dry because water is composed of water molecules itself.
confused? don’t worry, I am too, lol, but hope that this post won’t induce any drama
Wet is an adjective, used to describe something. Water itself is not wet, once it hits something/someone, it makes that person wet. Therefore, water can be described as wet, but water itself is not wet.
