  1. Water
    Water is a liquid oxide of hydrogen. It exists in nature as solid ice or snow; in the liquid form in oceans, lakes, streams; and as a vapour in the atmosphere. As a true vapour it is invisible, but condensing becomes visible as mist, fog, cloud, rain or dew. In addition water is contained within the earth in enormous quantity; and the underground water is a great store which we use when it issues in springs or which can be reached in some cases by wells and borings.
