Viscosity of Water
Description
Water is a chemical compound with the chemical formula H2O. A water molecule contains
one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms that are connected by covalent bonds. Water is a liquid
at standard ambient temperature and pressure, but it often co-exists on Earth with its solid
state, ice, and gaseous state, steam (water vapor). Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface.
It is vital for all known forms of life.
Water plays an important role in the world economy as it functions as a solvent for a wide
variety of chemical substances and facilitates industrial cooling and transportation.
Approximately 70% of the fresh water used by humans goes to agriculture.
