|
|
cohesion
|
|
|
adhesion
|
|
|
high specific heat
|
|
|
high heat of fusion

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Water has an amazing ability to adhere (stick) to itself and to other substances. 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-2: -Answer and Explanation: Two properties of water that result from the polar bonding between its molecules are cohesion and adhesion. These properties cause water molecules to ‘stick’ to each other and to be attracted to other polar molecules.
Detailed explanation-3: -Adhesion is the ability of water molecules to bond with other molecules. This allows water to stick to windows and other substances.
