Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which force causes water molecules to stick to each other by hydrogen bonds?
A
tension
B
adhesion
C
cohesion
D
gravity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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: Hydrogen Bonds Make Water Sticky 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.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -More precisely, the positive and negative charges of the hydrogen and oxygen atoms that make up water molecules makes them attracted to each other.

Detailed explanation-5: -A cohesive force holds water molecules together. This force is an intermolecular hydrogen bond, which is a weak or temporary sort of chemical connection. It is formed when one HOH’s hydrogen reacts with the hydrogen of another HOH. As a result, as they cohere, they create a water drop.
