Answer:

Covalent Compound

Step-by-step explanation:

H₂O is a covalent compound due to the electronegativity difference between hydrogen and oxygen. Covalent compounds involve elements with similar electronegativity values. Hydrogen has an EN value of 2.2 and oxygen has an EN value of 3.4. These values are not far enough apart to make them form ionic bonds between each other.

While water can act as an acid, it its purest form, H₂O is neutral.

Its a covalent compound because of the low difference in the electronegativity of Hydrogen and Oxygen as they share electrons forming covalent bonds
