    Dissolves everything? Hydrophobic and halogenated compounds would like to have a word.

      Along with the people pointing out conductivity.

      Who says water is not compressible? Takes a lot of energy, but the big bang didn't happen in a sea of water.

      most solids and liquids are practically incompressible (when comparing with gasses). there is a relationship between bulk compressibility, shear stress and youngs modulus for solids, which can be extended for liquids. It does not work for gasses

                  Fun fact, there are materials that dissolve better in fatty acids than water. For example, Menthol crystals extracted from Mint Oils will readily dissolve in other oils but is very picky about its water.

                              My oceanography textbook said so. You'd think the ocean people knew about water. Must be more propaganda from big compress to sell more compression.

                              To be fair, ive seen what the ocean can do to carbon fiber tubes. If it can do that and still not compress, its pretty damn incompressible.
