Hi ButchB. These serious Science Technology Issues on this Board have got to stop. They do nothing to help X_DEV go into orbit.
See water is much more compressible than pure distilled water. Due to the countless minerals and metals(gold, silver and magnesiun, etc.)there are countless(but finite) interstitial voids due to the low packing efficiency of the molecules, atoms and at least the unattached free electrons.
If you compress 1 liter of pure water to say 100 cc and use the same pressure to compress 1 liter of seawater then it ends up approximately as 5 cc. The uncertainty is due to the fact that we do not know exactly what a void is made off, for it can not be made of nothing(if it nothing then it cannot exist).TIC.
