magnetic
43
New cards
Weak attraction between bonds
hydrogen bonding
44
New cards
Adhesive
forms hydrogen bonds with molecules on other surfaces
45
New cards
Cohesive
the molecles are attracted to each other due to hydrogen bonds
46
New cards
What does cohesive do
creates surface tension, causes water to form droplets and allow insects and leaves to rest on the surface of a body of water
47
New cards
What does adhesive do
allows water to travel up the stem of a plant, and seeds swell and germinate by capilliary action
48
