so i have a tree i put in a pot, covered with soil, and only ever added water to it. my tree's mass has increased, yet the soil has not lost any! by what magicks was water transmuted to bark, sap, and leaf?
The mass of a tree is primarily carbon, and comes from the splitting of CO2 into O2 and C by way of photosynthesis.
the carbon must come from the water, so water is made of coal??? 
i must inform the king!You've viewed 7 comments.
