Compare the electronegativity of H and O in the polar covalent bonds of a water
molecule. Which atom will get the electrons more of the time?


Answer :

Answer:

The O atom will tend to attract the electrons.

Explanation:

The electronegativity of O (3.5) is much higher than H (2.1), which means it is more likely to attract electrons. The higher the electronegativity, the more attractive.
