Bond formation in water molecule, illustration
Bond formation in water molecule. Illustration of the sharing of electrons (small blue spheres) between two hydrogen (H, blue) and one oxygen (O, red) atom to form a molecule of water (H2O, right). This is an example of covalent bonding, with the two single bonds formed by a shared electron pair consisting of an electron from each atom. Water is a liquid at room temperature and pressure.
