Question
what type of attraction is found between water molecules? a ionic bonds b nonpolar covalent bonds c polar covalent bonds d hydrogen bonds
Water molecules have a polar nature due to the electronegativity difference between oxygen and hydrogen. The hydrogen - bonding occurs between the hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the oxygen atom of another water molecule. Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons between ions, non - polar covalent bonds have equal sharing of electrons, and polar covalent bonds are within a water molecule (not between them).
