Cohesive force of water is due to

  1. 0 -bonds
  2. OH - bonds
  3. S-bonds
  4. H-bonds

Correct answer: H-bonds

Solution

Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonding, which arises because oxygen is highly electronegative and creates a polar O–H bond. This makes the hydrogen of one molecule attract the oxygen of another, producing cohesion.
