They are polar and form hydrogen bonds
The molecules in water are closer to each other than those of water vapor, but farther away from each other than those of ice.
Water molecules form weak hydrogen bonds with each other when close, which causes them to stick together. This is called cohesion. It is one of three highly unique properties of water, the other two being adhesion, which is water's ability to stick to other materials, and surface tension, which causes the water molecules to act almost like an elastic sheet, like when water is on the lip of a glass, but doesn't spill.
when sugar dissolves in water the sugar molecules are more attracted-to the water than each other.the molecules-break apart from each other and water molecules surround them.
hydrogen bonding
polar covalent bonds make the water molecule and hydrogen bonding attracts other water molecules to each other
It enables water molecules to stick to each other and to many other things.
Adhesion is where water molecules stick to other things, and cohesion is where the water molecules stick to each other. The combination of this makes it so that together, they can climb up things like roots of a tree to give the tree water.
cohesion is when molecules of a certain similar kind (in this case water molecules) are more attracted to each other than to those of other substances. Water molecules are strongly cohesive as each molecule may make four hydrogen bonds to other water molecules.
Because of hydrogen bonds which help water molecules stick to each other. hope it helped i just learned it today

Water is made up of lots of tiny molecules. The molecules are attracted to each other and stick together. The molecules on the very top of the water stick together very closely to make a force called surface tensionI hope that helps :D
Each molecule of water is polarized, which means that one side is positively charged and the other side is negatively charged. Because of this, when water runs over a substance, the water molecules catch on to the other molecules and pull them into the water (decay), or stick them to each molecule (as in a solution).
cohesion-- Water molecules stick to each other. adhesion-- Water molecules stick to other molecules. Water is a polar molecule because of oxygen is more electronegative. Hydrogen bonds create surface tension and result it water's cohesive and adhesive properties. Hydrophobic = repel water Hydropholic = affinity for water. ...... hahaha XD

The relationship is that they do not mix. The molecules in water are attracted to each other and will not mix with the oil molecules which are also attracted to each other and therefore will not mix with the water molecules
