How is the rise of liquid affected if top of the capillary is closed?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

there will be a small rise in the capollary tube if top of capillary tube is closed , because the rise of liquid in capillarytube due to srface tension will be opposed by the downward force exerted by the comperssed air above the liquid in tube. This downward force increase in height of liquid column. Therefore a small rise of liquid column is possible in a capillary tube with closed top.
