Water molecules have a bent shape.
Water molecules have a bent or V-shape due to the repulsion between the lone pairs of electrons on the oxygen atom.
PCL5: Trigonal bipyramidal shape PH3: Trigonal pyramidal shape OF2: Bent shape ClO4-: Tetrahedral shape
In a water molecule, there are two lone pairs of electrons connected to the oxygen. The lone pairs push the hydrogen atoms, creating a bent shape. In CO2, however, there are two double bonds and no lone electrons on the central atom, hence the molecule has a linear shape.
Bent does not apply to a water molecule. Water molecules have a bent shape due to the arrangement of the hydrogen atoms around the oxygen atom. Polar, organic, and covalent are all characteristics that can be used to describe water molecules.
Methanol has a tetrahedral shape. Oxygen by itself would have a bent shape when bonded with hydrogen and carbon
The general shape is "bent".

Water does! H2O!

OF2 has a bent shape.
Bent Out of Shape was created in 1983-05.

Bent shape
No, many linear molecules are nonpolar. A polar substance often has a bent or otherwise asymmetrical structure.
