Question

14/10 what kind of molecule is water? scroll more nonpolar covalent ionic polar covalent metallic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Water ($H_2O$) has a bent molecular geometry. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than hydrogen, creating a dipole moment. This makes water a polar covalent molecule (electrons shared unequally between O and H). Nonpolar covalent (equal sharing), ionic (electron transfer), and metallic (metal atoms) don't apply.

Answer:

C. Polar Covalent
