Answer 1

Answer:

please mark me brainlist

Explanation:

Water meniscus is convex, mercury is concave

This occurs with water and a glass tube. A convex meniscus occurs when the molecules have a stronger attraction to each other than to the container, as with mercury and glass.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Mercury shows a convex meniscus as it has higher cohesive forces than adhesive forces with glass. Water, on the other hand, shows a concave meniscus as the adhesive forces between water and glass are higher than the cohesive forces between water molecules.
