The water molecule has a partial negative and partial positive charge because it is a polar molecule. Electrostatic attraction between the partial negative and partial positive molecules gives the water molecule its partial charge.
The higher electronegativity of oxygen allows water to carry partial charges (negative on oxygen, positive on hydrogen). These partial charges allow water to bind strongly with itself, and allows it to interact with polar molecules. The partial charge allows polar molecules to dissolve in water.
Water is a "polar" molecule, meaning that there is an uneven distribution of electron density. Water has a partial negative charge () near the oxygen atom due the unshared pairs of electrons, and partial positive charges () near the hydrogen atoms. An electrostatic attraction between the partial positive charge near the hydrogen atoms and the partial negative charge near the oxygen results in the formation of a hydrogen bond. The ability of ions and other molecules to dissolve in water is due to polarity. For example, sodium chloride in its crystalline form will dissolve in water.

Polar molecules have positive charge on one side and negative charge on other side. Non polar molecules have covalent bond and do not have positive and negative charge on one or other side of the molecule.
This is a polar molecule.
The water molecule has a partial negative and partial positive charge because it is a polar molecule. Electrostatic attraction between the partial negative and partial positive molecules gives the water molecule its partial charge.
A polar bond is one in which there is a difference in electronegativity. One side/end of the compound is more negative (partial negative charge; higher electronegativity) than the other (partial positive charge; less electronegative).
Polar molecules happen when there is an unequal sharing of electrons in a covalent bond. This leads to a partial positive change on one molecule and a partial negative charge on the other. An example of this is water (H2O). The hydrogens have partial positive charges and the oxygen has a partial negative charge.
When a substance is polar it means that the molecules have a partial positive charge on one part of the molecule and a partial negative charge on the other. When a substance such as a lipid is nonpolar it means that it does not have this trait.
HF is non polar as most electronegative element fluorine is attached to hydrogen.that creates a partial positive charge over hydrogen and partial negative charge over fluorine.which creates polarity
Polar compounds have poles that have a partial positive charge and a partial negative charge that attract other polar molecules. Nonpolar compounds do not have partially charged poles, so the polar substance is not attracted to them and they don't dissolve.
A polar molecule...such as water. The oxygen molecules pulls the electrons closer, causing the oxygen to have a more negative charge and the two hydrogen atoms to have more positive charges. this is very important in the bonding of water molecules to other water molecules.
A polar covalent bond is one in which the electrons are not shared equally. This results in the more electronegative atom developing a partial negative charge, and the less electronegative atom developing a partial positive charge.

that atom has a greater attraction for electrons
Polar molecules have unequal distribution of electrons. Water for example, oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen so it will pull electrons towards itself, giving oxygen partial negative charge on it and partial positive charge on the hydrogen. A hydrogen bond forms between the partial negative charge on oxygen on another water molecule and partial positive charge on hydrogen on other water molecule.
