For that you have to look closely at what water actually is: it’s a bunch of molecules<\/a>. When putting the heat on water, the exchange of energy makes these water molecules move faster and faster. Faster moving molecules (naturally) are better in ‘batting’ off stains (other molecules) than slower ones.\n<\/p>\n

While I was trying to dissolve all of the bean residue, I was thinking of the ‘magic’ properies of soap. However, using soap with water, is not what I consider ‘fair play’.
