Answer:

The composition of a water molecule is one of the first chemical compounds we learn—H2O—two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The atoms connect in a slightly offset or triangular structure, which creates a positive charge on one side of the molecule and a negative charge on the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Water is essential to life—we learn this early in our elementary school years. This information is often accompanied by the fact that over 50% of our bodies are made up of water. However, the lesson does not always go on to explain what it is about water that makes it so essential.

(Hope this was helpful!)
