Detailed explanation-1: -The property of cohesion describes the ability of water molecules to be attracted to other water molecules, which allows water to be a “sticky” liquid. Hydrogen bonds are attractions of electrostatic force caused by the difference in charge between slightly positive hydrogen ions and other, slightly negative ions.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cohesion and adhesion are two water properties that describe how water molecules interact with each other. and how water molecules interact with other things like leaves or even you. Cohesion means that water likes to stick to itself. and adhesion means that water likes to stick to other things.

Detailed explanation-3: -The bonds between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms in water are polar, giving the oxygen a partial negative charge and the hydrogens a partial positive charge. The result is that water molecules hydrogen bond with other substances as well as each other, resulting in cohesion and adhesion.
