Cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion are the properties of water molecules that ________.
A) increase when temperature increases
B) increase when pH increases
C) are a result of hydrogen bonding
D) are a result of polar covalent bonding

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion are all due to the hydrogen bonding between water molecules, which is a result of the polar nature of water molecules. These properties do not increase with temperature or pH, nor are they a result of polar covalent bonding.
