Water, H2O is covalently bonded, but in the liquid form it does dissociate very slightly into ions. In pure water the concentration of H+ is 10-7 molar.

Is h2o a covalent or ionic?

H2O, or water, is held together by polar covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are defined as a sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms. Ionic bonds are defined as a bond between metal and non-metal ions. There is no metal ion in an H2O compound because Hydrogen is a gas and Oxygen is a non-metal, so it cannot be an ionic bond.

Is water ionic or non ionic?

Water is a non-ionic molecule composed of two covalently bonded hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. It does not dissociate into ions in its pure form.


Does H2O have at least one ionic bond?

H2O does not have any ionic bonds. The bond between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms in water is a polar covalent bond, where electrons are shared unequally leading to a slight negative charge on the oxygen and a slight positive charge on the hydrogens.


Does H2O or CaO have stronger bond?

H2O has a stronger bond then CaO because H2O is a covalent compound (made up of two nonmetals), whereas CaO is an ionic compound (made up of both a metal and nonmetal), and covalent bonds are stronger then ionic bonds.
