Did You Know?
Water is made up of two elements, hydrogen and oxygen. Its chemical formula is H2O.
The existence of water is essential for life on Earth.
Water has three different states, liquid, solid and gas (e.g., water, ice and steam).
The freezing point of water lowers as the amount of salt dissolved in it increases. With average levels of salt, seawater freezes at -2 °C (28.4 °F).
Water makes a good solvent with many sugars, salts and acids easily dissolving in it. On the other hand, oils and fats don’t mix well with water.
Drinking water is needed for humans to avoid dehydration. The amount each person needs during a day depends on the temperature, his or her level of activity and other factors.

Je, Ulijua? Maji yana elementi mbili, hidrojeni na oksijeni. Fomula yake ya kemikali ni H2O. Kuwepo kwa maji ni muhimu kwa uhai duniani. Maji yana hali tatu tofauti, kioevu, imara na gesi (kwa mfano, maji, barafu na mvuke). Kiwango cha kuzama kwa maji hupungua kadiri kiasi cha chumvi iliyoyeyuka ndani yake kinavyoongezeka. Kwa kiwango cha wastani cha chumvi, maji ya bahari huyeyushwa kwenye -2 ° C (28.4 ° F). Maji hufanya kioevu kizuri na sukari nyingi, chumvi na asidi huyeyuka kwa urahisi ndani yake. Kwa upande mwingine, mafuta na mafuta hayachangani vizuri na maji. Maji ya kunywa yanahitajika ili wanadamu waepuke kukosa maji mwilini. Kiasi cha chakula ambacho kila mtu anahitaji kwa siku kinategemea joto, kiwango chake cha shughuli na mambo mengine.
