Adhesion is the tendency of different molecules to cling to each other. This property is crucial in biological processes and helps substances like water interact with other materials.
Cohesion: Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same substance, such as water molecules sticking together.
Hydrogen Bonding: Hydrogen bonding is a type of weak chemical bond that occurs when a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom experiences attraction to another electronegative atom.
Surface Tension: Surface tension results from cohesive forces between liquid molecules at the surface, creating a minimal surface area.
