Why cant the hydrogen of a water molecule stick to a hydrogen of another molecule?

The hydrogen atoms in a water molecule have slight positive charges. Particles with like charges (both positive or both negative) will repel each other.

In both liquid water and ice a hydrogen bond forms between .?
A hydrogen bond forms between the hydrogen(s) of one water molecule, and the oxygen molecule of another water molecule.
Describe where a hydrogen bond can from among water molecules?
In one water molecule, you have the slightly negatively charged oxygen side, and then you have the slightly positive hydrogen end. Because of this, the negative oxygen attracts positive hydrogens and vice versa in separate water molecules. This is where the hydrogen bonds are made.
What type of bonds hold one molecule of water to another molecule of water?
A hydrogen bond is the attractive interaction of a hydrogen atom with an electronegative atom(<-wikipedia). Hence, in a water molecule the positive hydrogen atoms are attracted to the negative oxygen atoms. Just know that the hydrogen bond mentioned above is not a chemical bond. If it were, it wouldn't be water anymore. Another force between water molecules are London Dispersion Forces.
Is water polar and forms hydrogen bonds that helps molecule stick together?
Yes. Water is a polar molecule and forms hydrogen bonds with itself that helps to stick water molecules together. It can also form hydrogen bond with other polar organic molecules (with less nymber of carbon atoms) like alcohols, carboxylic acids etc., and is hence responsible for the solubility of these compounds in water.
What type of bond is formed when the positive charged hydrogen atoms in a water molecule are attracted to the negative charged oxygen atoms in another water molecule?
covalent bond

A hydrogen bond forms between the hydrogen(s) of one water molecule, and the oxygen molecule of another water molecule.
Why do water molecule stick each other?
They are polar and form hydrogen bonds
How does hydronium ion form?
when a water molecule gains an hydrogen ion from another water molecule
Which type of bond is responsible for water's cohesion and which atoms interact to form this bond?
A hydrogen bond between the oxygen of one water molecule and the hydrogen of another water molecule.
What describes the attraction of one water molecule toward another?
This attraction is called hydrogen bond, what causes higher boyling point in relation to compounds without such bonds

The hydrogen side of a water molecule is?
The hydrogen side of a water molecule has a slight positive charge.
What happens if you add another atom of oxygen to a molecule of water?
H2O2 is the hydrogen peroxide.
When two water molecules react what do they create?
Two water molecules can react to from hydrogen bonds. If one water molecule acts as an acid and donates a proton to another water molecule then hydronium ions an hydroxyl ions can be formed as well.
