For Question 1, in a water molecule ($H_2O$), oxygen and hydrogen atoms share electrons to form covalent bonds. Ionic bonds involve transfer of electrons, and hydrogen bonds are intermolecular forces, not bonds within the molecule.
For Question 2, water is a polar molecule and a universal solvent, which allows it to dissolve many substances, enabling it to carry nutrients and waste. It is not very acidic (has a neutral pH of 7) and is a polar covalent compound, not non - polar.
