Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In reference to water, what to do cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion all have in common?
A
All are aspects of a crystalline structure
B
All are results of the structure of hydrogen atoms
C
All are produced by ionic bonding
D
All are properties related to hydrogen bonding
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What do cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion have in common with reference to water? All are results of the structure of the hydrogen atom. All are produced by covalent bonding.

Detailed explanation-2: -In reference to water, what to do cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion all have in common? Explanation: These properties of water are all a result of hydrogen bonding.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: The four unique properties of water that make it unique are high specific heat, high polarity, adhesion cohesion, and a lower density as a solid. Water having a high specific heat allows it to absorb heat energy without a subsequent change in temperature.

Detailed explanation-4: -All are properties related to hydrogen bonding.
