What do cohesion surface tension and adhesion have in common?
all are properties related to hydrogen bonding.
Cohesion and adhesion are?
Information used from Prentice Hall Biology book from the year 2006. Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same substance. Due to hydrogen bonding water is very cohesive. Water's cohesion causes molecules on the surface of the water to be drawn inward causing "surface tension". This property allows insects to walk on water. Adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different substances. Adhesion causes water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity for example the forces that draw water out of the roots of the plants and up into its stems and leaves, this is called capillarity.
What are the properties of water what contribute to water moving up and through a plant?
Two: cohesion, where water molecules are attracted to each other, and adhesion, where they are attracted to a different surface. Think of water molecules as people wanting to climb out of a well: people leading the way up are grabbing the side walls (adhesion) and also pulling other people up (cohesion). This adhesion and cohesion are due to water molecules hydrogen-bonding with each other and with the tubes in the plant.
What property of water allows water molecules to stick together?
The property is cohesion. Cohesion among water molecules at the water's surface produces surface tension.
Are hydrogen bonds a example of adhesion?
no
What causes adhesion and cohesion of water?
Hydrogen bonds are the reason for cohesion and Van Der Waals equation is the cause of adhesion.
What is a direct result of hydrogen bonding?
cohesion and adhesion
Why are water properties of adhesion and cohesion important to living things?
Cohesion and adhesion put together is called capillarity. Capillarity alows water to move throughout a plant.
What kind of bond gives water its important properties of adhesion cohesion and specific heat?
They type of chemical bond that is responsible for the properties of adhesion and cohesion is hydrogen bonding. In cohesion the water's hydrogen bonds make water self-sticky, it beads up. In adhesion water has the ability to climb up the wall of any container it is in.
What do cohesion surface tension and adhesion all have in common with reference to water?

What is the relationship between adhesion and cohesion?
Adhesion is the connecting of water molecules to one another through hydrogen bonds. Cohesion is the connection of water molecules to other objects. A relationship between them would be capillary action, or surface tension. Where water molecules must connect to both each other as well as another surface. This is a major property of water.
