When you put a stick in water and remove it the stick is wet When you put a stick in mercury and remove it the stick is dry The reason for this is that adhesive forces are greater?
between the stick and water
When things stick together they?
Bond
Why does glue stick things?
It binds two things together on the molecular level.
How does glue stick to things if it doesnt stick to the bottle?
When you squeeze the glue out of it's container, it makes contact with air, therefore evaporating the water molecules and drying it onto the surface of which you are gluing. So the reason why glue doesn't stick to the inside of the bottle is merely because the top is (hopefully) sealed, denying air access to the glue inside, so the water molecules remain intact. Hopefully you found this resourceful.
What do all living things not need?
All living things need an energy source which may be provided by chemicals or light, an environment that does not poison, cook or freeze them and others of their species (if they are not single celled or asexual) to breed with.
What property of water causes it to stick to other things?
Biotechnology
What do cohesive surface tension and adhesion have in common with reference to water?
Cohesion: When things stick to each other (WATER) Adhesion: When things stick to other things (ALSO WATER) Surface Tension: a property of the surface of a liquid that causes it to behave as an elastic sheet. Think of it as the thing that helps insects to glide along the water. (ALSO WATER)
How does adhesion and cohesion affect each other?
Adhesion is where water molecules stick to other things, and cohesion is where the water molecules stick to each other. The combination of this makes it so that together, they can climb up things like roots of a tree to give the tree water.
Do stick insects eat leaves?
Yes, all stick insects are vegetarian. Leaves are their main diet. (The water stick insect, or water scorpion, is a different family. It is a carnivore.)
Do all living things drink water?
all living things drink water
Why does water stick to skin?
You have hairs all over your body that hold the water on your skin.
How water's properties attribute to it's cohesive behavior?
cohesion means the water molecules stick to other water molecules, adhesion is when the water molecules stick to other things like the inside of a stem of a plant.
How does the hydrogen bonding between water molecules affect the properties of water?
It enables water molecules to stick to each other and to many other things.
Will glue stick to wood treated with Thomsons water seal?
Yes glue will stick if the Thomson's is dry. I have glued various things to treated deck wood
Can water adhere and cohere?
When two things that are alike stick together, they cohere. Water molecules in a cloud cohere to each other forming a droplet of water. More of these droplets cohere to each other forming larger droplets. When the cloud becomes saturated with water droplets it rains. When two (or more) different things stick together, they adhere. When you get caught in a downpour and your clothes gets really wet, the water makes your clothes adhere (stick) to your skin.
How hydrogen bonds affect the physical properties of water?
It enables water molecules to stick to each other and to many other things.
All things made of iron are magnet?
Iron has magnetic properties and magnets will "stick" to it.
