States of Water
States of Water
Water exists in solid, liquid, and gas states. In solid form, it's ice, in liquid form, it's water, and in gas form, it's water vapor.
Forms of Water
Forms of Water
Water can be found in two forms: free water, like the water in a lake, and combined water, like the water in a plant.
Water Formula
Water Formula
The chemical formula for water is Hâ‚‚O, which means each water molecule has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.
