Answer: Water is a permanent electric dipole, having permanent charge separation.
Explanation:
Hydrogen bonding is an intermolecular force having partial ionic-covalent character.
In , O is a highly electronegative atom attached to a H atom through a covalent bond. The oxygen atoms being more electronegative gets partial negative charge and H atom gets partial positive charge. Thus water is permanent electric dipole.
Hydrogen bonding takes place between a hydrogen atom (attached with an electronegative atom O) and an electronegative atom (O).
