example of force of cohesion
Answers
Explanation:
A common example of cohesion is the behavior of water molecules. Each water molecule can form four hydrogen bonds with neighbor molecules. The strong Coulomb attraction between the molecules draws them together or makes them "sticky." Because the water molecules are more strongly attracted to each other than to other molecules, they form droplets on surfaces (e.g., dew drops) and form a dome when filling a container before spilling over the sides. The surface tension produced by cohesion makes it possible for light objects to float on water without sinking (e.g., water striders walking on water).
Another cohesive substance is mercury. Mercury atoms are strongly attracted to each other; they bead together on surfaces. Mercury sticks to itself when it flows.
Answer:
The force of attraction between molecules of same substance is called the force of cohesion
