Well, a teacher played the same prank on my class, and only about half of us fell for it, so I thought there might be some interesting fights between the people who believed and didn't.

ARGH, this is horrible!

Hydroxylic acid isn't h2O it's HOH. And has a PH that's under 7.

I just took a big swig of this chemical, and I'm still alive! Clearly this is a sign that I am the CHOSEN ONE™!

Pay me moniez and I'll do it again!

Fun fact: Water is very, very rarely actually pH 7. It needs to be exactly 25 degrees for that to be the case.

E: Also, has no isomers; HOH and H20 are identical in meaning.

The very first thing I thought of was the dihydrogen monoxide joke. And it seems it's the same and one. D:

Too bad this doesn't work really well in Korean. It becomes a bit more bulky and awkward; doesn't really roll of the tongue, and besides anyone can notice that it's water because of the wording.

It becomes "Two hydrogen one oxygen" which doesn't really work that well >_<

Sadly, I'm not really connected with a whole lot of people.  Even fewer of those people are American.  And even fewer-fewer of those are...

...

...well, no, actually most of those people are fairly gullible and uninformed.  But regardless, nobody tends to pay much attention to whatever nonsense I tend to get up to, so after a day of being up it's gotten four likes.  That's pretty much it.

And one of them's my mom.

Huh, still, the naming convention makes me think that. Yeah, that combination is prolly impossible in real life, since acids are ionic compounds dissolved in water, and water is a molecule.

quick-edit: your link doesn't actually have hydroxylic acid as part of the alternate names of water, but it does have hydrogen hydroxide.

Wikipedia listed Hydroxylic acid as one of the "other" names for water.  But I suppose it's less appropriate than, say, Oxidane.

Doesn't it usually auto-ionize and form a mixture of both?
