∙ 14y agoWater 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.

∙ 13y agoIt is hydrogen bonding. Water molecules have a partial positive charge at the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge at the oxygen atom, allowing them to form hydrogen bonds with neighboring water molecules.

∙ 14y agoI assume you are reffering to hydrogen bonding.
a water molecule has polarity indicated by delta positive or delta negative (d+, d-) where the oxygen atom is d- and the two hydrogens are d+. If for example you have two water molecules a hydrogen bond could form between a hydrogen of one atom and the oxygen of the other since the d- is attracted to the d+. Hydrogen bonds are relativly weak, however when many are combined this interaction between two substances can be very strong.

∙ 14y agobecause they are both water and they have the capacity bind together bacause ther the sama substance that can easily be combined...

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.
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.
A hydrogen bond attracts one water molecule to another. This bond is formed between the slightly positive hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the slightly negative oxygen atom of another water molecule.
A protonated water molecule is also known as a hydronium ion (H3O+).
A dehydration reaction is another term for condensation reaction. It involves the removal of a water molecule to form a new molecule.
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.
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.
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.
Caffeine is a small molecule that can bind to adenosine receptors in the brain, preventing adenosine from binding and causing alertness.
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.

when a water molecule gains an hydrogen ion from 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.
water is a polar molecule. so it doesn't attract to oil (another polar molecule)
A hydrogen bond attracts one water molecule to another. This bond is formed between the slightly positive hydrogen atom of one water molecule and the slightly negative oxygen atom of another water molecule.
what causes water molecules to be attracteed to one another
Different compounds have different numbers of binding sites for water. A hemihydrate forms if a single molecule cannot accept the entire structure of water or if water split between two of the same molecule is a more stable compound.
