Answer:

An oxygen atom requires two electrons and each hydrogen atonecular this condition, each hydrogen atom shares its one electron to two electrons of the A molecule of water is made up of one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen by a requires one electron in their valence shell to attain stable electronic configuration. In therefore, shifted a little nearer to the oxygen atom. Since, an oxygen atom behaves more electronegative than a hydrogen atom. The oxygen atom gains a small partial oxygen atom. As a result, two covalent bonds are formed separately between oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen. Now, the oxygen atom attracts the electrons of covalent bond to a greater extent than do the hydrogen atoms. The shared electrons are, the water molecule. This partial negative and positive charge in two sides of water makes it a bipolar or dipole compound. The bond formed between oxygen negative charge (ö-) while hydrogen atoms gain equal partial positive charge (ö') in and hydrogen of a dipole compound, the water is called a polar covalent bond.
