    The water molecule has two hydrogen atoms joined to one oxygen atom by single covalent bonds. Because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen, the electrons of the covalent bond spend more time closer to the oxygen then hydrogen which creates a polar covalent bond. Hope this answers your question. Have a great day!
