Water molecules are polar, which means that one part of the molecule has a positive charge and the other has a negative charge just like the polar ends of a magnet.

Each water molecule is polar, meaning it has a positive end (hydrogen) and a negative end (oxygen). This polarity causes water molecules to attract each other and form hydrogen bonds, creating a slight magnet-like effect where water molecules are attracted to one another.
