    I wouldn’t say so, and for the same reason they claim water isnt wet i claim water is wet: unless it’s just a single molecule, water touches (and even clings to) water. So water is wet.

      • What if you have two molecules of H2O that are below 0°C or above 100°C?
      • What if you have two molecules of some other liquid substance that are also polar like H2O?

        I’d say that the liquid phase is implied. Nobody is arguing whether a solid is wet.

        And this is just by feel, but I’d say yes. Wetness is polar liquids sticking to stuff.
