Answer:
Cohesion forces ( or cohesion attraction) is the property by the virtue of which similar molecules stick together due to mutual attraction.
In other words, this force refers to the tendency of 2 similar molecules to prevent separation.
Classical example of cohesion forces are as follows
- Sticking of 2 water molecules in the xylem of plants
- Attachment of Mercury molecules in a thermometer.
Adhesion forces is the property by which 2 different types of molecules are attracted and attach to one - another.
Classical example of adhesion forces are as follows
- Attachment of water molecules to the xylem cells while being transported in plants.
- Attachment of water in a glass tube.
