Yes, water can be irradiated. Irradiation of water is the process of exposing it to ionizing radiation, such as gamma rays or electron beams, to kill harmful bacteria and pathogens. This treatment can make water safe for consumption by disinfecting it without leaving any chemical residues.

What happens to water molecules when irradiated do they ionise if they dont get radioactive why not?
Generally, water molecules when irradiated, do ionize into oxygen and hydrogen. There are hydrogen recombiners in the system to protect the reactor from the possibility of hydrogen explosions. Generally, water does not become radioactive. It only ionizes. But, in the core of the reactor, where there is a heavy flux of neutrons, the oxygen atoms can "activate" into Nitrogen-16, which is highly radioactive, though with a very short half-life of about 7.13 seconds. This is why the steam tunnel of a BWR is highly shielded and quite long - giving the 16N a chance to decay.

How can you tell if the food has been irradiated?
Irradiated food can often be identified by the presence of the "radura" symbol, which is a logo indicating that the food has undergone irradiation. Additionally, packaging may include labels that state the food has been irradiated or treated with ionizing radiation. While the appearance or taste of irradiated food may not differ significantly from non-irradiated food, these labeling indicators are the most reliable way to confirm its treatment.
