The hydrogen bonding in water creates ________, a cohesive force that enables one to slightly overfill a glass with water or allows denser objects, such as a lengthwise steel needle, to float on water

Respuesta :

Answer: -

Surface Tension

Explanation: -

Surface tension is cohesive force created as a result of hydrogen bonding, that enables a liquid drop to have a minimum surface area.

Due to it being cohesive, the water top surface is concave in nature, allowing us to hence slightly overfill a glass with water.

Due to surface tension, the surface of water behaves like a stretched membrane, allowing dense objects like a length wise steel needle to float on water.

Thus, the hydrogen bonding in water creates __surface tension__, a cohesive force that enables one to slightly overfill a glass with water or allows denser objects, such as a lengthwise steel needle, to float on water
