Content: These reactions are contingent on a relatively stable temperature around where water is liquid. Liquid water turns out to be rare in our solar system; the temperature range where water is liquid is only a small fraction of all available temperatures. Only Earth, and maybe one of the moons of Jupiter has water, and therefore life, within this temperature range. Approved by eNotes Editorial Team
