That would be a description of water, i.e. H2O
This describes the formation of a covalent molecule/bond.
nopolar
A single oxygen atom is smaller than a molecule.
The oxygen and hydrogen in water are bonded by a covalent bond. This means that the two lone lone electrons of hydrogen are shared with oxygen. Oxygen has a tendency to "hoard" electrons. So when it bonds with the hydrogen the two shared electrons are closer to the oxygen than to the hydrogen. As a result one side of water(the one with the oxygen) becomes slightly negative due to the fact that the oxygen has the two electrons closer to it. The side of the hydrogen becomes slightly positive as a result. When two or more molecules of water are placed together the slightly negatively charged oxygen from one molecule attracts the slightly positively charged hydrogen from another molecule forming a weak hydrogen bond. this hydrogen bond is formed as a result of the polarity of water.
A water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atomsAnswerA water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. The negative pole is near the oxygen atom and the positive pole is between the hydrogen atoms.
Oxygen atoms have a greater electronegativity than hydrogen atoms. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself.

Oxygen attracts electrons more strongly than hydrogen does.
10 (2 for hydrogen+8 for oxygen)
In a water molecule, the oxygen atom shares electrons with two hydrogen atoms, but it does not share equally since it has a stronger attraction for electrons than the hydrogen atom does, and the electrons therefore have a greater probability of being close to the oxygen nucleus than to the hydrogen nuclei. As a result, the oxygen atom has a negative charge. The hydrogen atoms are positively charged.
Covalent bonds. The hydrogen and oxygen bond together by sharing outer shell electrons.
Polar Covalent Bond. This is when a pair of electrons is shared between two atoms in a molecule but the electrons are not equally shared. Because the Oxygen atom has a stronger pull on the electrons than the Hydrogen, the electrons will be more drawn to the Oxygen atom.
The covalent bond between a hydrogen atom and and an oxygen atom when the two atoms share electrons. They form a water molecule when there are two hydrogen atoms sharing electrons with one oxygen atom.
