Question
Chapter 2.2, Problem 8BYGO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason why the cohesion and thermal stability of water would be less if water did not have polar covalent bonds.
Introduction:
Cohesion can be defined as the attraction of a molecule with a similar type of molecule. For example, water molecules have very strong cohesive forces due to the ability to form hydrogen bonds.
