If you were to remove 1 cubic foot of water from Jupiter, and weigh it on earth, would it weigh the same as 1 cubic foot of Earth water?

Well, the problem is that the density changes with temperature. So this would have to be taken into account.

 

But if you are asking is one mole of water one mole of water, then yes.

Then you are saying that higher gravitational fields have no effect on the compression of molecules.

There would be some effects due to the pressure differences in the atmospheres. I assume that there would be some difference in the density due to the diffeences in the strength of the gravitational field, but I would expect these to be swamped by differences due to temperature and atmospheric pressure.

 

It may help if you give us some insight in to why you are asking these questions.

ajb said MOLE.

 

Mole is quantity of particles or molecules.

 

1 mole of water is 6.022141*10^23 molecules of H2O.

So it's 2 moles of Hydrogen = 2*6.022141*10^23 = 1.2044282*10^24 Hydrogens.

And 6.022141*10^23 Oxygens.

My theory is that environmental factors such as gravity, have an effect on molecules, which may change the known properties of the material. At high or extreme gravity, will water still freeze at 32F or boil at 212F? If something as simple as water can be affected by gravity, then what about all the known laws of chemistry, could we find new uses for common materials.

Pressure will change physical properties like boiling point, and may affect the equilibrium of some reactions.

 

But I am not aware of any more fundamental effects on chemistry. It seems unlikely as the effect of gravity on electron orbitals will be insignificant. This might happen in really extreme circumstances, like the surface of a neutron star but not on Earth - or anywhere in the solar system, I suspect.

All real entities have substance/stuff. Substance provides objective reality and positive existence to real entities. In material universe, matter alone provides substance to real entities. As long as real entities are considered, matter is universal.
