b)

Cohesion and adhesion are the same thing.

c)

Cohesion and adhesion have no effect on water.

d)

Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same substance, while adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different substances.

8.

Explain the capillary action of water with an example.

a)

When water is poured onto a paper towel, the water is able to move upward against gravity due to capillary action.

b)

Capillary action is the movement of water through a straw when sucked from the top.

c)

Capillary action of water occurs when water is poured onto a flat surface and remains stagnant.
