Some scientists have recently discovered the answer is that, no. You can't make water, so the water we are drinking right now, the dinasours from millions of years ago also drank. This is because of the water cycle that no water gets wasted, because when it is drunk, we sweat it out then it is evaporated and turned into clouds causing rain, thus making more water for us to drink to sweat out and then to rain and then all over again, by Fraser Nicol the geeky show off!

B.Yes.

Plants take in water and carbon dioxide and use photosynthesis with energy from the sun to produce carbohydrates which contains carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. The water is not conserved. When the carbohydrates are burned then you can get the hydrogen and oxygen atoms recombining to form water.

When animals or human bodies take in water and carbohydrate and then they can metabolise them to get protein molecules, fats and simpler carbohydrates. The body can breathe out water vapor and carbon dioxide, all the water is not conserved.

C.

Yes.

You can make water by getting 2 parts hydrogen(h²) and oxygen (o) and that makes water.

humans can also make water just by breathing out into a cup

D,

To expand on Answer C - hydrogen and oxygen alone don't make water. That just makes a gas mixture. You need to burn the hydrogen and condense the captured product - the water. (H2O)

We don't "make" water just by breathing into anything. Our exhaled breath contains water-vapour.

If water is split into hydrogen and oxygen, the oxygen can act as an accelerant in a burning reaction. This is demonstrated in the Metacafe video in the Related Links section.

Water itself can't be set alight in the usual ways we consider to be burning, however. Other chemical reactions can occur that can give off heat or be explosive and bright - adding sodium or potassium or lithium to water, for example.

No but the water spill out of the pan or pot then your water will but other than that no.

You burn hydrogen and oxygen to get water.

This is what you would get with a hydrogen car. This is what you get with a fuel cell that uses hydrogen. This is a common experiment in High School Chemistry. Note: this tends to be expolosive and produces lots of heat so be careful and follow instructions.

If you burned methane and air or oxygen, you would also get water that could be condensed and CO2 that would go off into the air.

B.

You cannot . But this is what is what it is made up of.

It is made by 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen.

Only Earth produces it.
burn hydrogen

It depends on how you say destroy.

You can destroy the healthines and you can make water not good, and you can change water, but i am guessing that is not what you mean. No, you cant kill or break water. (you can with ice) You can make dissapear if you make it battle with heat though.
