Water is normally thought to be the solution to extinguish fires, not ignite them. But when subjected to certain conditions, normal H2O can do the exact opposite. In order to create this magical liquid that scientists call 'supercritical water', it is first compressed at 217 times the air pressure found at sea level and then heated above 703°F (373°C).

      That's pretty cool. To completely different elements doing something I never thought could happen. Do you think fire could make water?

                  By saying "No it don't", are you implying that you are an expert in this field, and are willing to object other's research openly on a post?
