𝐂𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐘/ CAPILLARY ACTION

Is the name given to the behavior of the liquid in a thin-bore tube. The rise or fall of a fluid in a capillary tube is caused by surface tension and depends on the relative magnitudes of the cohesion of the liquid and the adhesion of the liqud to the walls of the containing vessel.

ADHESION

The attraction force between different molecules.

COHESION
