Why is water wet because it is made out of a gas and how does that make a liquid?

Water is wet because it is made up of a substance that feels moist when touched.

AnswerBelieve it or not but water is a bit sticky. All fluids have what we call surface tension, a tendency to stick to things even itself. You have probably notice how little objects can be stuck to the surface of water and not sink. Certain insects walk on water using this phenomina. So when you get water on yourself it kind of sticks to you. You can't shake it off, you have it wipe it away or evaporate it.
