2 answers:
Answer:
covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding
Explanation:
<u>The molecular formula of water is in which the two hydrogen atoms are connected to the oxygen atom via covalent bonds which means that the electrons are shared in the bond.</u>
Hydrogen bonding is a special type of the dipole-dipole interaction and it occurs between hydrogen atom that is bonded to highly electronegative atom which is either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.
Partially positive end of the hydrogen atom is attracted to partially negative end of these atoms which is present in another molecule. It is strong force of attraction between the molecules.
<u>Thus, when multiple water molecules are there, there are connected by hydrogen bonding.</u>
