What Is Water?
H2O is the chemical formula for one molecule of Water. Water is made up of one atom of Oxygen and two atoms of Hydrogen
What is the shape of water?
The angle formed between the two hydrogen atoms is 104.45 deg. A typical tetrahedral bond angle is 109.5 deg.

Water - Magnetic, Sticky, Hook & Loop
The two hydrogen bonds are represented by pink balls and their exposed positive charge by the loop cage structure. The two regions of negativity opposite the hydrogen atoms are represented by two hook structures, possibly corresponding to the spin orientation of the oxygen electrons.
diaMER
The ideal structure of two water molecules is the Water Diamer
The O—O distance is 2.952 Å
The hydrogen bond deviates 2.3° from linearity
The bond strength, D0, is 3.40 kcal/mol
The highly nonrigid dimer has six floppy intermolecular vibrations
triMER
The water trimer is a much more rigid structure than the dimer, with three strained H-bonds
The O—O distance in the trimer is 2.85 Å, significantly shorter than in the dimer
tetraMER
The water tetramer has one free and one bound H
The average O—O distance is further shortened to 2.79 Å
It has a high level of symmetry
pentaMER
The H-bond in the pentamer is nearly linear
The O—O distance of 2.76 Å is close to the value found for liquid water and especially ice
Molecular dynamics simulations have shown that five-membered rings are a dominant topology in liquid water
hexaMER
The hexamer is a cage structure with oxygens forming a distorted octahedron
