Does drinking cold water technically mean you drink more water

468 viewsChemistryOther

Since water molecules are closer together when colder so more “water” in a given amount of space(or molecules in general I think I could be wrong, I could be wrong about this whole thing) could it be reasoned that drinking cold water results in drinking more water than hot water? And if not how come?

Depends on how you define an ‘amount’ of water.

If you have two one-litre jugs of water at different temperatures, they both contain the same volume of water, but the colder one contains more water molecules.

So you’re still drinking a litre of water, but you get more bang for your buck in terms of molecules with the colder jug.
