how hydrogen bonding occurs between water molecules‚ and relate this and other properties of water‚ to the roles of water in living organisms. Water is a very small molecule‚ consisting of two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to an oxygen atom. However the electrons shared are not done so equally‚ oxygen is more electronegative and has a firmer hold on the electrons and pulls them slightly towards its nucleus. Due to this‚ the charge across the molecule of water is not equally distributed‚ and the
