A report on Water
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 ).

Hydrogen
15 linksChemical element with the symbol H and atomic number 1.
Chemical element with the symbol H and atomic number 1.
Most of the hydrogen on Earth exists in molecular forms such as water and organic compounds.
Oxygen
10 linksChemical element with the symbol O and atomic number 8.
Chemical element with the symbol O and atomic number 8.
Most of the mass of living organisms is oxygen as a component of water, the major constituent of lifeforms.
Liquid
8 linksNearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure.
Nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure.
Water is by far the most common liquid on Earth.
Water cycle
7 linksThe water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle or the hydrological cycle, is a biogeochemical cycle that describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth.
Hydrogen bond
9 linksPrimarily electrostatic force of attraction between a hydrogen (H) atom which is covalently bound to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group, and another electronegative atom bearing a lone pair of electrons—the hydrogen bond acceptor (Ac).
Primarily electrostatic force of attraction between a hydrogen (H) atom which is covalently bound to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group, and another electronegative atom bearing a lone pair of electrons—the hydrogen bond acceptor (Ac).
The hydrogen bond is responsible for many of the abnormal physical and chemical properties of compounds of N, O, and F. In particular, intermolecular hydrogen bonding is responsible for the high boiling point of water (100 °C) compared to the other group-16 hydrides that have much weaker hydrogen bonds.
Groundwater
10 linksGroundwater is the water present beneath Earth's surface in rock and soil pore spaces and in the fractures of rock formations.
Chemical element
8 linksSpecies of atoms that have a given number of protons in their nuclei, including the pure substance consisting only of that species.
Species of atoms that have a given number of protons in their nuclei, including the pure substance consisting only of that species.
Air is primarily a mixture of the elements nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, though it does contain compounds including carbon dioxide and water.
Surface runoff
6 linksSurface runoff (also known as overland flow) is the flow of water occurring on the ground surface when excess rainwater, stormwater, meltwater, or other sources, can no longer sufficiently rapidly infiltrate in the soil.
Ammonia
10 linksCompound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the formula NH3.
Compound of nitrogen and hydrogen with the formula NH3.
Solvent properties: Ammonia readily dissolves in water. In an aqueous solution, it can be expelled by boiling. The aqueous solution of ammonia is basic. The maximum concentration of ammonia in water (a saturated solution) has a density of 0.880 g/cm3 and is often known as '.880 ammonia'.
Drinking water
9 linksDrinking water is water that is used in drink or food preparation; potable water is water that is safe to be used as drinking water.
