Misinterpretation of scientific knowledge for the influence of public opinion has been a repeating problem over the past, and usually creates a rift between the scientific community and the general public.
Each water molecule consists of two atoms of the element hydrogen joined to one atom of the element oxygen. An interesting property of water is the ability of its molecules to “stick together.” This occurs because one side of each water molecule is slightly negative and the other side is slightly positive. The positive portion of a water molecule is attracted to the negative portion of an adjacent water molecule. As a result, water molecules are called polar molecules. They attract other water molecules like little magnets. It is most likely ionic bonding but between hydrogen and oxygen it is covalent.

The outer electrons of an element are called the valence electrons. They help make an element stable.
Cesium : 1 valence electron<span>.
Magnesium : 2 valence electrons</span>
