Cohesion is when other water molecules stick to other water moleculesbecause of the Hydrogen Bonds

When water molecules stick to other surfaces such as windows

Hydrophilic is when things get wet (Hair, paper, cotton

Hydrophobic are things that cannot get wet such as oil , wax, duck feathers

the tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area
