Water covers about 71% of the Earth's surface, mostly in seas and oceans (about 96.5%). The gaseous state of water is steam or water vapor. When finely divided, crystalline ice may precipitate in the form of snow. Clouds consist of suspended droplets of water and ice, its solid state. It forms precipitation in the form of rain and aerosols in the form of fog. "Water" is the name of the liquid state of H 2O at standard temperature and pressure.Ī number of natural states of water exist. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°. Its chemical formula, H 2O, indicates that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected by covalent bonds.
It is vital for all known forms of life, even though it provides neither food, energy, nor organic micronutrients. Water (chemical formula H 2 O) is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance, which is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent ). Clouds in Earth's atmosphere condense from gaseous water vapor.
