Answer:

water is a polar molecule

Step-by-step explanation:

the electrons in a water molecule are not distributed evenly as oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen and has a lone pair of electrons which are shared to form the H2O molecule, therefore 2 delta-positive and 1 delta-negative areas is formed.
