Question

A water molecule has bonds with an unequal charge distribution. Choose all the statements that apply to water.

* Water is a polar covalent molecule.
* Water is a nonpolar covalent molecule.
* Water is an ionic molecule.
* Water is a bent molecule.

Answer 1

Water is bent, it's also polar covalent (because of its bent shape. Bent molecules aren't symmetrical so they can't be nonpolar.).

Answer 2

Water is a polar covalent molecule.
Water is a bent (bent shape) molecule.
