In a covalent bond one atom can attract the shared electrons more strongly than the other atom can. Water or H2O has a covalent bond whose Oxygen atoms attract more electrons that its Hydrogen atom. Since electrons have a negative charge, the Oxygen atom has a partial negative charge and the Hydrogen atom has a partial positive charge. These partial charges are what make water a polar molecule.marrit · 2 years ago
