Thats not a valid point, because the oxygen combines with hydrogen and changes/forms into a completely new element. It is no longer oxygen.
Also, air is not made only of oxygen. It is made up of nitrogen (78.09%) and oxygen (20.95%). The remaining 1% is made up of argon (0.93%), carbon dioxide (0.03%) and other trace gases (0.003%). Water vapor is also present in air in varying amounts.

| the glass is half full if it is being filled, if it is being drained than it is half empty, and if it always had half of the fluid it could contain inside of it, it is at half compacity. |

| No pic shush, sorry. I'll explain it here. In a glass, water is not flat at the top. It never is if the glass is round. It greates a small dip in the center of the water at the top of the glass like a graduated cylinder for measuring liquid. Inside that dip, there is ar that is surrounded on the sides by the glass. So, a glass is never completely full. |

| If you want another explanation, it is that evaporation is a never ending process. The glass can only be completely filled for microseconds, then evaporation starts and starts taking water from it into the air. |

It greates a small dip in the center of the water at the top of the glass like a graduated cylinder for measuring liquid. Inside that dip, there is ar that is surrounded on the sides by the glass. So, a glass is never completely full. Thats called a meniscus. But when we use the term "filled" nd we imply that we are talking about a glass of water, then it means when the edges of the water are touching the rim of the glass. While the center may not be all the way up, it still is considered "full". - Einsteinean wrote:

Evaporation does not start instantly. It takes a couple of minutes first to start, and then becomes a never-ending process. So when you first pour the water, it can be full. |

| I like to think that the cup is neither half empty nor half full. The top half of the substance inside the cup is invisible. |

- iFly2's fb notes wrote:
- Full is empty, of emptyness, thats right, emptyness. You see full is full, meaning that its empty of emptyness, so sence its not filled with this emptyness, it cannot be full, odd, no? The same goes for empty as it is full of emptyness. However that only works if you imangine full as "filled" and empty as "unfilled". In another point of view this might not be true.
