Water molecules display a significant amount of cohesion (to each other) and adhesion (to other objects). This is part of what allows the formation of dense water droplets on the surface of leaves or other objects or animals. Additionally, these properties create surface tension on the surface of water, which can allow insects such as water striders to "walk" on water. These unique properties of water are due to which type of bonding?

Answer:

Its Hydrogen Bonding, i took the test

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydrogen bonding occurs between the positive dipole of one water molecule with the negative dipole of another. It is an intermolecular force that gives water its unique properties such as: high boiling point, high specific heat, cohesion, adhesion, and density.
