Aqua, by common meaning is water, owing to the meaning of the original Latin word; however in a chemistry context aqua is also a colloquialism for Aqua Regia.

In the first case aqua is a compound, while in the second it is a mixture of ionized acids.

Water is a compound of Hydrogen and Oxygen covalently bonded with a chemical formula of H2O.

Aqua Regia is entirely more complex, however suffice to say it is a mixture of concentrated Nitric and Hydrochloric acids, with are ions in solution as both being strong acids they ionized completely.
