Positively or negatively charged ions exist. They will attract water molecules, which will cluster around them and produce an accumulation of rain droplets.

Two hydrogen atoms bound together by covalent bonds to one oxygen atom make up a water molecule. The shared electrons in covalent bonds are drawn to oxygen atoms because they are electronegative.

As a result, the water molecule's electrons spend a little more time near the oxygen atomic center and a little less time near the hydrogen atomic center. Therefore, the covalent bonds are polar.

An atom or molecule with a net electrical charge is known as an ion. Conventionally, the charge of an electron is thought to be negative; this charge is equal to and opposite to the charge of a proton, which is thought to be positive.
