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 refers to the attraction of molecules for other molecules of the same kind, and water molecules have strong cohesive forces thanks to their ability to form hydrogen bonds with one another.
Detailed explanation-3: -Water molecules stick to other materials due to its polar nature. This property is called adhesion.
Detailed explanation-4: -Surface tension, meniscus and capillary action are the effects of cohesion.
