what type of bond between water molecules pulls them into this tight ball?

dropdown options: covalent bond, hydrogen bond

Explanation:

The tight spherical shape of the water droplet is caused by cohesive forces between water molecules. These cohesive forces are a result of hydrogen bonds, which form between the partially positive hydrogen atoms of one water molecule and the partially negative oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules. Covalent bonds only hold the atoms within a single water molecule together, not between separate molecules.

Answer:

hydrogen bond
