Question

Capillary actions of the liquid can be explained on the basis of its surface tension

Answer 1

Capillary action is the movement of liquid in the places like narrow spaces where there is no opposition from external forces. ... Hence, the cohesive force and adhesive force which is present in liquid is because of surface tension, keeps the liquid bounded.

i hope this answer helps..

mark me as a brainliest..

Answer 2

Answer:

Adhesion of water to the walls of a vessel will cause an upward force on the liquid at the edges and result in a meniscus which turns upward

Explanation:

The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the walls is stronger than the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules.
