Question
complete the sentences.
forces cause water molecules to stick to the glass molecules in the tube.
forces between water molecules hold the molecules together. when
forces are greater than the forces, water appears to climb up the tube.
Adhesion is the attraction between different substances, so adhesion forces cause water molecules to stick to glass molecules. Cohesion is the attraction between like - substances, so cohesion forces hold water molecules together. Capillary action occurs when adhesion forces are greater than cohesion forces, making water climb up the tube.
