The contact angle between pure water and pure sliver is `90^@` If a capillary tube made of silver is dipped at one end in pure water, will the water rise in the capillary?

The water potential of pure water is

Will the bulb glow if the end B is dipped in pure water?

Addition of solute to pure water:

A capillary tube is dipped first in cold water and then in hot water. Comment on the capillary rise in the second case.

Figure shows a capillary tube of radius r dipped into water. If the atmosphere pressure is P_0 , the pressure at point A is

Water or any liquid rises in the capillary tube because of _____ .

The lower end of a capillary tube is immersed in mercury. The level of mercury in the tube is found to be 2 cm below the outer level. If the same tube is immersed in water, up to what height will the water rise in the capillary ?

Assertion :The contact angle between water and glass is acute. Reason :The surface of water in the capillary is convex .

Explain why pure water has the maximum water potential.
