Hey
Here's your answer !!

__________

Oxygen ( O2 ) and ( H2 ) both are non metals .

So , in a water molecule , Oxygen molecule binds to hydrogen in water by a covalent molecule in which electrons are shared .

Two hydrogen and one oxygen molecule combines to form water ( H2O ) .

Each hydrogen shares one electron with the oxygen molecule and the oxygen molecule shares one electron each with the hydrogen atoms .

So , there are 6 electrons of the the oxygen molecule which do not take part in the bonding . Hence , there are 3 lone pairs.
