Water is not considered a living thing.
This is because water is a chemical compound (H₂O) and it doesn't have the characteristics of living things.
The rules for being considered a living thing are:-
Being able to reproduce its copy
Needing nutrients to survive
Excreting wastes
Move around freely
Grows
Respires
They use energy
Are made up of cells
Can respond and adapt to environment
It is quite obvious that water does not possess these abilities, so, water is considered a non-living thing although it is essential for keeping us alive.
