Polarity cones from electro negativity of the atoms involved.

H2O, oxygen is more electro negative than hydrogen so attracts the electrons closer, hence we started g dipole moments.

2 water molecules will try and align themselves accordingly, and 1 oxygen will bind to it’s own, but is also attracted to the hydrogen of the otherwatwr molecule.

Put a bunch of water molecules together and they will reorganize accordingly.
