D
Bear that drinks Coca-Cola
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles-a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.

Detailed explanation-2: -A polar covalent bond is a covalent bond in which the atoms have an unequal attraction for electrons and so the sharing is unequal. In a polar covalent bond, sometimes simply called a polar bond, the distribution of electrons around the molecule is no longer symmetrical.

Detailed explanation-3: -A molecule with an unequal distribution of charge, which results in the molecule having a positive end and a negative end is called a polar molecule. Molecules are polar when their atoms have different levels of electronegativity, or affinity for electrons.

Detailed explanation-4: -Polarity-Dipole Atoms, such as carbon and hydrogen, have a tendency to be more neutral or have partial positive charges. Electrons in a polar covalent bond are unequally shared between the two bonded atoms, which results in partial positive and negative charges.

Detailed explanation-5: -Polar covalent bonds result when electrons are unequally shared between atoms, while nonpolar covalent bonds result when electrons are more equally shared between atoms. The unequal sharing of electrons is due to the differences in the electronegativities of the two atoms sharing the electrons.
