Dictionary.com ays stupider is a word (& so does iago, it must be a word)....it just doesnt sound gooder

I have no idea why buffalo wings aren't made from buffalo (I know buffalo dont have wings [at least the same kind birds to])

Fish stay alive in frozen water?...

"Buffalo Wings" are short for "Buffalo-Style Chicken Wings" -- Buffalo being a city in New York. 

Fish would die if they were in frozen water.  However, lakes and rivers and stuff don't freeze solid, only the first meter or so freezes, the water underneath is .. water. 

[CrAz3D]

...I assumed thats what the survery thing was talking about, when refering to fish. 

[rabbit]

"stupider" is a word.

Frozen water is an oxymoron.

Found a typo in the quiz.

If 0% stupid = 92% smart, by my calculations, I'm 98% smart.  I win.

[Joe]

Fish stay alive in frozen water?...

Nope. Only the top freezes.

Rabbit, when you say frozen water, you really mean to say frozen dihydrogen monoxide, yet not sound like a nerd.

[rabbit]

No, I mean to say "water".  If chemistry were common sense everything would be called by its chemical compound name.  Words in a language exists for a reason, and that reason is to be used.

[iago]

I don't think "frozen water" is an oxymoron, for the same reason that "steam" is "evaportated water".  Just because it's frozen or evaporated, that doesn't mean it stops being water.  It's just a different form of water. 

And Joe, the proper chemical name for water is Hydrogen Hydroxide.  H + OH.  If you want to sound like a nerd, do it properly. 

[Nate]

its Dihydrogen Monoxide.

[CrAz3D]

Frozen water = ice, I agree with iago.
fish can't live in ice (frozzen water)...I don think anywayz...people die when frozen so I'd assume fish do too

[Joe]

Me goes with the Canadian.

[Sidoh]

Water is the common name for the chemical compound H₂O.  It does not also describe its state of matter.  iago's right, I think.

[iago]

its Dihydrogen Monoxide.

The chemical structure is properly defined as H(OH), it's a hydrogen atom attached to a hydroxide molecule.  Hydrogen Hydroxide.  At least, that's how I've always been taught it. 

[Sidoh]

I think either name is formally correct, though Dihydrogen Monoxide makes more sense to me, since both hydrogens are chemically (not ionically) bonded with the oxygen atom.

Correct me if I'm wrong, because it's been a long time since I've taken chemistry, but isn't that true for all hydroxide molecules?

[rabbit]

Why yes it is!

And "water" is indicative of the liquid state.  Ice is the solid, and steam the gaseous.  I'm not sure a plasma form exists (I do beleive the molecule rips apart before it can attain plasma?) so I don't know a name for it.  What it's called is DEFINATELY a name for its state, at least in the case of H₂O, in all its specialness.

Do some poking around on a chemistry website.  Water is simply the common name for H₂O.  It does not define the state of matter it exists in, though it is generally assumed that it is in liquid form, since it is by far the most abundant state water exists in on this planet.

Its also referred to as water vapor when a gas, so yeah you lose and frozen water works just fine.
