Like hydrogen fluoride (HF), water (H2O) is a polar covalent molecule.

The electron pair in a non-polar covalent bond is shared equally by the two bonded atoms, but in a polar covalent bond, the electron pair is shared unequally by the two bonded atoms. Differences in electronegativity are what lead to polar bonding.

The entire transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms is referred to as an ionic bond. It is a kind of chemical connection that produces two ions with opposing charges. In ionic bonding, the nonmetal takes the lost electrons to form a negatively charged anion while the metal loses them to become a positively charged cation.
