Water is formed through natural processes such as evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Although humans can manipulate and treat water for various purposes, such as purifying it for drinking or using it for industrial processes, the fundamental properties and existence of water are not created by human intervention. Therefore, water is classified as a natural substance.
