Detailed explanation-1: -In the case of water, hydrogen bonds form between neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hydrogen bonds cause water to be exceptionally attracted to each other. Therefore, water is very cohesive.
Detailed explanation-3: -The negative side of one water molecule will attract the positive side of another water molecule, and a hydrogen bond will form between the two. This causes the water molecules to want to stick together, a property known as cohesion.
Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Strong linkages-called covalent bonds-hold together the hydrogen (white) and oxygen (red) atoms of individual H2O molecules. Covalent bonds occur when two atoms-in this case oxygen and hydrogen-share electrons with each other.
