Each water molecule consists of two atoms of the element hydrogen joined to one atom of the element oxygen. An interesting property of water is the ability of its molecules to “stick together.” This occurs because one side of each water molecule is slightly negative and the other side is slightly positive. The positive portion of a water molecule is attracted to the negative portion of an adjacent water molecule. As a result, water molecules are called polar molecules. They attract other water molecules like little magnets. It is most likely ionic bonding but between hydrogen and oxygen it is covalent.

Answer: hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Ionic bond is formed by the transfer of electrons between metals and non metals.

Covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons between two non metals.

Hydrogen bond is the bond formed between hydrogen and an electronegative atom such as fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen.

Water molecules are bonded by strong hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom and thus are bonded by cohesive forces of hydrogen bonds.
