Final Files Sources: ================================================== FINAL ANSWER Answer: While it may seem counterintuitive, water is not actually colorless. It has a slight blue tint. However, the blue hue is very faint and is often only noticeable in large bodies of water. The reason we perceive water as clear is that our eyes primarily see the colors of light that are reflected back to them. Water absorbs a small amount of light across the visible spectrum, but it absorbs red light slightly more than blue light. This means that when light passes through water, a tiny bit more blue light is reflected back to our eyes, making it appear clear with a slight blue tint. Let me know if you'd like more detail on the physics of light absorption and reflection! ==================================================
