The bond between hydrogen and oxygen is covalent, involving a shared pair pf electrons. The bond is polar, with the hydrogen being slightly positively charged and the oxygen slightly negative, Backus of the difference in electronegativity between O and H. The hydrogen bond is an electrostatic attraction between the positively charged H and the negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule
