Detailed explanation-1: -In the case of water, hydrogen bonds form between neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules. The attraction between individual water molecules creates a bond known as a hydrogen bond.
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: Water is attracted to water, and Adhesion: Water is attracted to other substances.
Detailed explanation-4: -cohesion. The property of mutual attraction between similar molecules is called cohesion. This is responsible for the water molecules sticking together which aids in the ascent of sap.
