What do we call the phenomenon that occurs when adhesion and cohesion work together to pull a liquid up a thin glass tube?
That is capillary action.
Is cohesion and adhesion the same?
No, Cohesion is when like particles are forced together by the molecular forces. Adhesion is when unlike particles are forced together by molecular force
What has high specific heat cohesion and adhesion?
water
What characteristic of water is the most beneficial to living things?
cohesion and adhesion
What accounts for water's of adhesion and cohesion?
The solute (NaCl) is dissolved in the solvent (water)
How does adhesion and cohesion results to the formation of a meniscus?
if adhesion>cohesion, concave meniscus from out if ahesion<cohesion, convex if adhesion=cohesion, flat surface
HELP - I need it by July 16 2009 - Which is stronger - cohesion in a liquid or its adhesion to a solid?
it depends on the solid with which the liquid comes in contact, if the adhesion is stronger the liquid wets the solid else i t cannot ; eg;- in the case of water and glass the adhesion is much stronger than cohesion ,on the other hand the cohesion is greater if you consider the case of water and certain leaves(in which water cant wet them).
What do Cohesion and Adhesion have to do with Capillary action?
The liquid rises up due to the forces of adhesion between the capillary and liquid.. It rises till the extent when adhesive and cohesive forces and external forces balance each other...
What causes adhesion and cohesion of water?
Hydrogen bonds are the reason for cohesion and Van Der Waals equation is the cause of adhesion.
What do we call the phenomenon that occurs when adhesion and cohesion work together to pull a liquid up a thin glass tube?
That is capillary action.
Is cohesion and adhesion the same?
No, Cohesion is when like particles are forced together by the molecular forces. Adhesion is when unlike particles are forced together by molecular force
How are cohesion and adhesion difference?
Cohesion is a word used to describe something being formed as a whole. Adhesion is a word used to describe something that is being adhered to another object. So, cohesion is only 1 object and adhesion is 2 or more objects.
What willbe the expression for the work of cohesion between water and benzene?
Water and benzene will have a work of adhesion rather than a work of cohesion as this is the work associated with the connection between two things as opposed to cohesion which is the force holding one thing together. The expression for the work of adhesion is: gamma of the liquid vapour interface + gamma of solid vapour interface - gamma of solid liquid interface. Where gamma is surface tension.
What is the different shape between cohesion and adhesion?
Cohesion the force of attraction by which the molecules of a solid or liquid tend to remain together (clinging power of the same substance)Adhesion: intermolecular attraction between substances that are unlike and in surface contact, causing them to cling together (like glue to paper)
The attraction among molecules of different substances is called?
An attraction between substances of the same kind is called cohesion. However, if it occurs in water, then it is known as capillary action.
What is Adhesion and what is Cohesion?
Cohesion ia property of identical molecules to form agglomerates; a common example is the assembly of mercury from small bubbles into a larger one.Adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different chemical nature.
What are synonyms of adherence?
Bond Cohesion attachment adhesion
