Cohesive
The interaction between wax paper and water is adhesive. Adhesive forces are when two different substances stick together, whereas cohesive forces are when the same substance sticks together. In this case, the water molecules are attracted to the wax paper, causing them to adhere to each other.
Water's cohesive properties are due to hydrogen bonding between water molecules. This attraction allows water molecules to stick together, creating surface tension and giving water its ability to form droplets. Water's adhesive properties are the result of hydrogen bonding between water and other molecules, allowing water to adhere to surfaces such as glass or plant tissues.
Water is both adhesive and cohesive due to its polar nature. Water molecules are polar, with a slight positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a slight negative charge on the oxygen atom. This polarity allows water molecules to attract and stick to other substances (adhesion) and to each other (cohesion).
Adhesive is the ability of a substance to stick to other surfaces, like glue sticking to paper. Cohesive is the ability of a substance to stick to itself, like water droplets sticking to each other. Remember "A" for adhesive (sticks to other surfaces) and "C" for cohesive (sticks to itself).
Capillary action is the process where water is absorbed and travels through a paper towel due to the interaction of the liquid with the towel's fibers. This phenomenon is driven by the combination of adhesive and cohesive forces.
Both, the water molecules are cohesive to each other, and the outer water molecules are adhesive to the table surface.

Yes, water beads up on wax paper because its cohesive forces are greater than the adhesive forces.
Adhesive, decisive, inconclusive.
Water molecules are both cohesive and adhesive: they can stick together or stick to other surfaces.
Water has both cohesive and adhesive forces. They are similar.The cohesive of water describes how the molecules of water are attracted to one another. We observe the cohesive forces of water when we see a drop of water sitting on a surface. The water does not spread because the molecules are attracted to one another. Surface tension of water is due to its cohesive properties.The cohesive forces of water are due to hydrogen bonding between molecules.Adhesive properties of water are how the molecules are attracted to other substances. We observe the adhesive forces of water when we see the edge of water in a glass is attracted up on the sides of the glass. This is most apparent when the diameter of the glass vessel is less than a centimetre. It is called a meniscus. Trees use this adhesive property of water to help suck water up from the ground. If the diameter of the glass is small enough, as in a glass capillary, the water will rise up the tube by itself due to adhesive forces.
Yes.

Cohesion in water is the water being 'sticky' or attracted to itself. Adhesion in water is when the water is 'sticky' or attacted to other surfaces. Water is cohesive and adhesive because of it's properties. The oxyogen and hydrogen molecules are bonded together and are polar. Beacuse the molecules are polar the particales are therefore attracted to each other from negative to positive end (cohesion), but are also atracted to other particles in other surfaces, again positive to negative poles (adhesion). It's very important that water be both cohesive and adhesive for being good for solutions and other functions.
This happens due to the difference in adhesive and cohesive forces. Water molecules are more attracted to the walls of the tube (adhesive forces) than to each other (cohesive forces), causing water to rise. Mercury has stronger cohesive forces compared to adhesive forces, so mercury is more attracted to itself than to the walls of the tube, causing it to be depressed or fall in the capillary tube.
