Why is water covalently bonded?

Answer 1

This attraction is known as Hydrogen_bonding. The molecules of water are constantly moving in relation to each other

dumbo no lives you could have just looked it up on google that is how i found the answer.

IDIOTS

Answer 2

Covalent bond is a type of interatomic bond where atoms share electrons to achieve the stable electronic configuration.This happens between non-metals. Hydrogen in the water molecule is a non-metal. It cannot give away it electron cause it will not exist, so it share its one electron with oxygen who needs two more electrons to be stable to form H2O. And to further check more, the electro-negativity difference between Oxygen and Hydrogen is 1.4 which makes it a polar bond

Answer 3

Water molecules are polar. The hydrogen end of the molecule is slightly positive and the oxygen end is slightly negative. Because of this, the hydrogen end of one water molecule forms a weak bond with the oxygen end of another water molecule. These weak bonds are called hydrogen bonds.

Answer 4

Water is covalently bonded because it is formed by the sharing of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms to fulfill the octet rule, which requires each atom to have a full outer shell of electrons. This sharing of electrons allows each atom to achieve a more stable electronic configuration.

Answer 5

a covalent bond is a bond between elements that differ from electronegativity and it is that which happen between hydrogen and oxygen.
