Explain why different liquids do not reach the same height in capillary tubes of the same diameter. Please choose the best explanation. A. Cohesive forces stronger than adhesive forces reduce the height of the liquid in the capillary tube, whereas adhesive forces stronger than cohesive forces increase the height of the liquid. B. The height of the liquids in the capillary tubes depends on the density of the liquid. C. Different liquids have different intermolecular forces. The stronger the intermolecular forces within the liquid, the higher the liquid rises in the capillary tube.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
