I was gonna do the same well akshually. I work 30 hours a week with a dude who has a geology degree and is a cook cause he doesn’t wanna work for oil companies. I ask rock questions all the damn time. Water is actually not organic, oil is.
Health food store people are brutal. I worked in a kitchen with a pal doing the take away pre-made salads and sandwiches and I also handled the baked goods and the food questions we would be asked were fucking astounding. Sometimes down to asking if some certain arcane chemicals were present in a vegetable or fruit which when looked up turned out to be the pigments in tomatoes that make them red and shit like that. Like asking for veggies without cellulose or something. I got to hand away meat questions cause I don’t eat it but im sure people were asking if their meat was mitochondria free.
One of my favorites is the “healthy” brands of “organic” chicken that say hormone/antibiotic free and then with a little asterisk and in the corner “USDA regulations do not permit hormones or anti-biotics to be used in poultry”.
Also I was once asked if we carry grass fed chicken lmao.
organic in the scientific sense (not the consumer product sense) means something is carbon-based (roughly, some exceptions exist). Generally think of the molecules that are essential to living and dead cells, tissues and organs. H20 is an inorganic compound, although many organic things often exist in non-distilled water.
if you add something organic, like glucose, to water then technically the glass of sugar water is now “organic” because of the presence of the organic sugar. The H20 molecules themselves are still inorganic, but the organic glucose molecules are present and mixing around with them. It’s technically a mixed compound with both organic and inorganic molecules.
As to your question, if you somehow altered the H20 molecules to include carbon in their molecular chain, they would cease to be water and would become something different. If you just add organic molecules into a mixture with water, then it’s just a mixed compound.
So…from what I’ve gathered from my geologist co-worker is yes but unless the distinction is necessary minerals are just kinda referred to as rocks. A lot of things that are totally rocks aren’t considered ‘rocks’ by geologists cause people were involved in their creation or alteration. Basically if its not worth studying they don’t call it a rock. So while pavement is totally a rock, its not a TRUE rock
I saw fancy bottles water that said “Organic”. I had to ask my science friend what non organic water is
motor oil is non-organic water. yummy in my tummy
Given the make up of motor oil, and that it is not a carbide, I would think it would be considered organic.
I was meming

I figured, but I was also curious so I looked into it lol
distilled water is non-organic water
I used to work at a health food store and was once asked if we had “organic salt”…

Pastured chicken, and organic… black truffle salt? It’s a bit of a stretch.
Pasture raised chicken, are you sure all them bugs were raised “organic”?
Water isn’t organic. It’s literally lava and ice is a rock. It cant be organic by definition.
I honestly don’t know enough science to tell if this is a joke or not.

Wow learn something new. So theoretically could organic water have carbon added? I wouldn’t know the benefit

It’s not. I work with a dude with a geology degree and ice fits all the criteria for being a rock and therefore water is lava.
Unless it’s undergound, then it’s magma
Wouldn’t it be a mineral, rather than a rock?

Born too late to experience Pangaea
Born too soon to witness how plastic behaves in rock strata
