what causes attraction between molecules of liquid water

Question

anonymous · Answer

Water is a polar, covalently bonded molecule. This means that when the electrons are shared they spend more time orbiting the oxygen than they do orbiting the hydrogen. This creates a slight charge pole. It it because of this slight variation in charge that causes water molecules to be attracted.
