The correct response is:
Oxygen has a partially negative charge, and the hydrogens have a partially positive charge.
In a water molecule (H₂O), the oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, which leads to a partial negative charge on the oxygen and partial positive charges on the hydrogen atoms.
