What is water?

Water is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula H2O. It is a transparent, tasteless,
odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance, and it is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere
and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent[1]). It is vital for all known
forms of life, despite not providing food, energy or organic micronutrients. Its chemical formula, H2O,
indicates that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected by covalent
bonds. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°.[2] "Water" is also the
name of the liquid state of H2O at standard temperature and pressure.

Water plays many crucial roles in the body. From lubricating joints and processing nutrients to
regulating body temperature. Humans are made up of mostly water and electrolytes. A simple way to
prevent diseases and outcomes is to respond to thirst immediately. If you think you're thirsty and get that
specific feeling, you should drink water straight away. Keep a water bottle nearby and take a sip
whenever thirst strikes. Next is to increase your fluid intake when doing activities like exercising. Your
body demands more water when your body is at work at a high intensity for a long time. Water is also
effective if you're sick and in a hot weather. Another recommendation of preventing diseases and negative
outcome is to tie water into your daily routine. Drinking water when you wake up is necessary. After 8
hours in bed not drinking anything, it's easy to wake up in a dehydrated state. This is especially important
when you have a morning workout scheduled.
