Answer 2

auqa!!!

Answer 3

it's blue ...

Answer 4

first, not trying to bust your bubble, there are seven seas, and the chemistry is different in all. however water has no color. only the adulterant substances add color. remember that color is the absence of pigments. thus, when you see a green piece of matter, its because that object lacks the pigments of green. you are seeing a reflection(not fraction). two things to remember. black is not color, but the absence of all pigments, thus  in our measured environment, will reflect back at you. white light is all the colors together, like a rainbows reflection but at that point the light waves have split .

what color are blue jays feathers? they are not blue, but yellow. refracted light bends the wave, and you see a reflection of blue due to the structure of the feather, made of keratin, a protein.

Answer 5

light and dark blue

Answer 6

It depends on the colour of the sky.

Clear. It reflects the sky, so it looks blue.

Answer 9

See the source below...

Answer 10

the sea has no colour because it's filled by water which happens to have no colour,but,due to the smooth surface formed at the top most mollecules of water,they tend to act like a mirror and reflect light.between the sea surface and the sky has no objects that block light hence higher percentage of light intensity reflected.the sea therefore appears blue due to the inclined angle of view but the fact remains that the sea is ''clear''

Answer 11

it also depends on the amount of plankton and suege there is in it.

Answer 12

It is whatever color the bottom is, ideally, but it can be d**n-near any color in the rainbow or beyond thanks to all the junk dumped into it.

Answer 13

Clear. The colour comes from the reflection of the blue sky and the sand or rocks bellow can affect the colour.

Answer 14

I think it's clear and the colour it appears depends on the colour of the sky.  e.g. if the sky is blue the sea will appear blue.

Answer 20

Water is a good one! As it is very reflective, it can take on almost any `colour`. If there is a red brick building accross the water you are looking at, you might say the water is red. It`s similar for all things. It`s about reflection and the light/colour spectrum.
