In chemistry... it's a thin open-ended glass tube for collecting small amounts of liquid. Inserting one end of the tube into liquid allows the liquid to flow upqwards. When the liquid reaches a suitable height, a finger placed over the open end (towards the top) holds the liquid in the tube - for transferring from one place to another.
The liquid was pulled into the small tube by capillary action.
A thermometer has a capillary tube but a mercury switch in a heater thermostat has mercury that just rolls back and forth.
It is because of the surface tension between liquid molecules and the inner surface of the tube. The meniscus height is determined by the inner diameter of the tube. The smaller the diameter, the higher the meniscus will climb due to capillary action.
In such cases the melting point determination must be performed in a sealed capillary tube to avoid loss of sample. This can be achieved by heating the open end of the capillary tube, and with tweezers forcing it shut.
You have to go to the doctor, you cannot go into your body and clean a capillary personally.
the height of a capillary tube is not dependent on
because,the adhesive force of mercury in more compared to the cohesive force which acts on a capillary tube. that's why mercury falls in capillary tube
The capillary tube is fixed in the Ostwalds viscometer is for passing the liquid.
excess superheat in a capillary tube systems means that there is ______ charge
The capillary tube is used on the inside of the refrigerators. It is a long copper tubing that is used as a thruster.
deduce an expression for height of a liquid in capillary tube. also write practical applications of capillary action.
Vernier microscope radius of capillary tube
i dont know ha ha ha
capillary tube
The liquid was pulled into the small tube by capillary action.
The rise around the edges is called the meniscus, like capillary action this is caused by the adhesion of the liquid molecules to the walls of the container. In a large bore tube like a test tube or graduated cylinder this pulls up the edge and creates a concave meniscus, in a smaller bore tube this actually pulls the liquid toward the top of the tube.
