A water molecule, in light of its shape, is a polar particle. That is, it has one side that is decidedly charged and one side that is adversely charged. The particle is comprised of two hydrogen iotas and one oxygen molecule. The bonds between the particles are called covalent bonds, on the grounds that the molecules share electrons.

all this below

Each hydrogen atom is bonded to the oxygen atom with a single bond.

The oxygen atom has two lone pairs.

The molecule is bent.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen.

Each O-H bond is polar.

The molecule is asymmetrical.

The asymmetry and the polar bonds produce an overall molecular dipole.

The oxygen atom has a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen atoms have a partial positive charge.
