The elements which form water are 

(i) Hydrogen and oxygen. 

Justification : Water has entirely different properties (i.e. is a liquid, extinguishes fire) from the elements it is made up of i.e. Hydrogen a gas catches fire oxygen a gas supporter of combustion. 

1. Energy is needed to form water on combining O2 with H2

2. We can not seperate the constituents of water by simple physical means.
