Properties of Water in the Liquid Phase

In this section, we shall survey some of the outstanding properties of liquid water. We shall discuss only equilibrium thermodynamic quantities. Sometimes these properties are referred to 

Recently, Agarwal et al. (2007) showed that beryllium difluoride exhibits some properties similar to liquid water.
