The higher electronegativity of oxygen allows water to carry partial charges (negative on oxygen, positive on hydrogen).
These partial charges allow water to bind strongly with itself, and allows it to interact with polar molecules. The partial charge allows polar molecules to dissolve in water.

What is the electronegativity of O?
The electronegativity of oxygen (O) is 3.44 on the Pauling scale. Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons in a chemical bond towards itself. Oxygen has a relatively high electronegativity due to its strong affinity for electrons.
What is the electronegativity of Uranium?
The electronegativity of Uranium is around 1.38 based on the Pauling scale. Uranium is a metal with relatively low electronegativity compared to nonmetals like oxygen and fluorine.

Is Water non polar?
Water is polar molecule since oxygen has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen.

What would be the effect on properties of water molecule if oxygen and hydrogen had equal electronegativity?
The attraction of a particular kind of atom for the electrons of a covalent bond is called its electronegativity. If oxygen and hydrogen had equal electronegativity there wouldn't be any attraction between each molecule of water thus no hydrogen bonds.
Do lithium has the lowest electronegativity?
Lithium does not have the lowest electronegativity. It has an electronegativity of around 1.0 on the Pauling scale. Francium is typically considered to have the lowest electronegativity among the elements.
Is electronegativity of potassium greater than the electronegativity of fluorine?
No, the electronegativity of potassium is lower than the electronegativity of fluorine. Fluorine is the most electronegative element on the periodic table, while potassium is a highly electropositive metal with low electronegativity.
