Because of the unequal sharing of electrons. As in H2O, Hydrogen has a positive charge and Oxygen has a negative charge.

What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?
ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.
What type of bond does ammonia have?
polar covalent
What are some chemical reactions that carbon takes place in?
Polar Covalent Bond
Why are ionic bonds always polar?
Coordinate covalent bond is always polar because only one atom supplied both shared pair electron due to which partial positive charge appears on donar and partial negative charge on acceptor
Are non polar molecules soluble in water?
No.Water can't dissolve non-polar molecules. Water is a polar molecule. Since polar molecules can only dissolve with polar molecules, and non-polar molecules can only dissolve with non-polar molecules, water and non-polar molecules don't react together. Exception:- Some very small non-polar molecules can dissolve in water, like oxygen (O2)
What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules inoic molecules nonpolar convalent molecules?
ionic molecules dissolve the most. but some polar covalent molecules also do dissolve in water.
What type of bond does ammonia have?
polar covalent
Do polar molecules share electrons equally?
Nonpolar molecules are molecules that shares electrons equally and does not have oppositely charged ends. Polar molecules are molecules with a slightly positive end and a slightly negative end as a result of electrons being shared unequally.
What type of bond present in isopropyl alcohol?
The hydrogen-oxygen and carbon-oxygen bonds are polar covalent bonds. In turn, these polar covalent bonds can lead to hydrogen bonds forming between ethanol molecules and some other molecules.
Do polar molecules have ionic bonds?
Polar molecules typically do not conduct electricity as well as ionic molecules. This is because charges in polar molecules due to unequal sharing of electrons are not as strong as the charges on ions
What are examples of polar covalent compounds?
Acids are all polar covalent to some extent. Probably the most common polar covalent compound is water, H2O. Some other examples are ammonia, NH3, boron trifluoride, BF3, and hydrogen fluoride, HF. Basically, any two atoms with a percentage of ionic character (electronegativity difference) between 5% and 50% will form polar covalent bonds.
Is trinitrotoluene a polar covalent bond?
No, TNT is a molecule not a bond. Any covalent bond between atoms of different elements are polar to some extent, so yes, it contains many polar covalent bonds.
Is O-H an ionic bond?
although it is a non polar covalent .It definetely has some % ionic character(very less)
Are silicon compounds ionic or covalent?
They are covalent. Some are simple molecules, others are giant covalent structures.
Is gas polar?
Some gases have polar molecules as HCl, HBr, SO2, but not all gases have polar molecules.
Is salt polar covalent?
Some salts may be, but typically they are not.
Are molecules ionic bonds or covalent bonds?
Covalent- but sometimes some bonds are very borderline
