In the presence of a strong electron donor (strong reducing agent), water serves as an oxidizing agent. In the presence of a strong electron acceptor (strong oxidizing agent), water serves as a reducing agent.
On-water reactions are a group of organic reactions that take place as an emulsion in water and have an unusual reaction rate acceleration compared with (i) the same reaction in an organic solvent, or (ii) the corresponding dry media reaction.
Amphoteric nature : Water can act as both acid and base, which means that it is amphoteric in nature.
Hydrolysis reaction : Water has a very strong hydrating tendency due to its dielectric constant. It dissolves many ionic compounds. Some covalent and ionic compounds can be hydrolyzed in water.
Redox reactions : Electropositive elements reduce water to hydrogen molecule. Thus, water is a great source of hydrogen.
