Question

why does water exhibit strong cohesive properties? * 5 points due to its non - polar nature because of the presence of hydrogen bonds between water molecules due to its reaction with air molecules because of its neutral charge

Explanation:

Water molecules are polar and form hydrogen - bonds with each other. These hydrogen bonds are responsible for the strong cohesive forces among water molecules. Non - polar nature would lead to weak intermolecular forces, reaction with air molecules is not related to cohesion, and neutral charge does not explain cohesion.

Answer:

Because of the presence of hydrogen bonds between water molecules
