What causes hydrogen bonding between water molecules
earnstyle [38]

Answer and explanation;

-The hydrogen bonding in water is a a result of partial negative charge on the oxygen of one molecule which forms a hydrogen bond with the partial positive charge on the hydrogen of other molecules.

-When molecules of water are close to each other, their positive and negative regions are attracted to the oppositely-charged regions of nearby water molecules. This force of attraction is called a hydrogen bond. Each water molecule is hydrogen bonded to four others.

-This important property of hydrogen bond occurs in polar molecules such as water which contains weak, partial negative charge at one region of a molecule and also a partial positive charge elsewhere in the molecule.
