Water molecules has the property of being a dipole, which practically means the oxygen atom has a greater attraction of the electrons that the hydrogen atoms. This results in making the oxygen atom fairly negativly charged, while the hydrogen fairly positive. This gives the water molecule one positive end, and one negativ end, and the ability to bind up with themselves, (+)end of one molecule to (-)end of another.
We call these bonds Hydrogen bonds.
What else can I help you with?
What type of bond holds one water molecule to another water molecule?
A hydrogen bond holds one water molecule to another water molecule. This type of bond occurs between the positively charged hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule.
What type bond is responsible for holding one water molecule to another water molecule?
A hydrogen bond is responsible for holding one water molecule to another water molecule. This bond forms between the slightly positively charged hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the slightly negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule.
What type of bond attracts one water molecule to another?
When water molecules are attracted to other water molecules, this is called COHESION. This is because the oxygen end of water has a negative charge and the hydrogen end has a positive charge. The hydrogens of one water molecule are attracted to the oxygen from the other water molecules. This is what causes Cohesion. :)
What is another name for a protonated water molecule?
A protonated water molecule is also known as a hydronium ion (H3O+).
What is another term for condensation reaction?
A dehydration reaction is another term for condensation reaction. It involves the removal of a water molecule to form a new molecule.
Which molecule covers the binding site?
Proteins can cover the binding site of a receptor and prevent another molecule from binding to it. This interaction can inhibit the receptor's activity and affect cellular signaling pathways.
What factor affects the the change in temperature when a salt is dissolved in water?
The binding energy of the molecule compared to the binding energy of the ions it splits into when it is dissolved determines the change in heat of the water. The stronger a molecule is bound, the higher its binding energy and the more heat is needed to break it apart, which cools the water.
What type of bond holds one water molecule to another water molecule?
A hydrogen bond holds one water molecule to another water molecule. This type of bond occurs between the positively charged hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule.
What is a small molecule that specifically binds to another molecule?
Caffeine is a small molecule that can bind to adenosine receptors in the brain, preventing adenosine from binding and causing alertness.
How does one molecule of water combine with another?
one molecule of water combines with another because it is polar covalent because it has lone pair and charge separation it unites with another molecule.
Is a water molecule more attracted to another water molecule or a sodium ion?
Adehesion
How does hydronium ion form?
when a water molecule gains an hydrogen ion from another water molecule
What type bond is responsible for holding one water molecule to another water molecule?
A hydrogen bond is responsible for holding one water molecule to another water molecule. This bond forms between the slightly positively charged hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the slightly negatively charged oxygen atom of another water molecule.
Why does water and oil separate?
water is a polar molecule. so it doesn't attract to oil (another polar molecule)
What causes water molecule to be attracted to one on another?
what causes water molecules to be attracteed to one another
What type of bond attracts one water molecule to another?
When water molecules are attracted to other water molecules, this is called COHESION. This is because the oxygen end of water has a negative charge and the hydrogen end has a positive charge.

Is desiccant another name for water molecule?
No. A desiccant is something that absorbs water.
