Water facts
- Water is a colorless, odorless, and nearly tasteless liquid at room temperature, made of two hydrogen atoms bonded to one oxygen atom.
- It covers about 71 percent of Earth's surface and makes up roughly 60 percent of an adult human body by mass.
- Unlike most substances, water is less dense as a solid than as a liquid, which is why ice floats on lakes and oceans.
