hey dear here is your answer
A water molecule, because of its shape, is a polar molecule. That is, it has one side that is positively charged and one side that is negatively charged. The molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. The bonds between the atoms are called covalent bonds, because the atoms share electrons. The hydrogen atoms have one electron each.

Answer:

Due to the partial positive and negative charges that it contains at either end, water is regarded as a polar molecule.

Explanation:

  • Water (H₂O) is polar because of the bent structure of the molecule. Additionally, it functions as a polar solvent.
  • It is negatively charged on one side and positively charged on the other.
  • Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom make up the molecule. When two water molecules are close to one another, polar forces work to draw them together.
  • The oxygen atom of one water molecule will hook up with a number of hydrogen atoms from other water molecules.

As a result of its partial positive and negative charges at each end, water is regarded as a polar molecule.
