Cohesion

Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same type, such as water molecules. Water molecules have an overall neutral charge but are polar molecule. An oxygen atom in one water molecule has a partial negative charge that can bind to a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge in a second water molecule, forming a hydrogen bond. Each...

Cohesion is the tendency for the same type of molecules to stick together due to intermolecular forces.

Water molecules are cohesive because of their polarity and ability to form hydrogen bonds. An oxygen atom with a partial negative charge in one water molecule can bind to a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge in another water m...
