The forces of attraction between water molecules and the glass walls and within the molecules of water themselves are what enable the water to rise in a thin tube immersed in water.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Surface or interfacial forces lead to capillarity. The forces of attraction between the water molecules and the glass walls and among the water molecules themselves are what causes the water in a thin tube submerged in water to rise.

Hence, the water rises up a thin capillary tube can be explained by Newton's third law.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;

Describe the difference between a conductor and an insulator in terms of thermal energy transfer and provide an example of each.
Nikitich [7]

The difference between conductors and insulators is because of electronic structure of atoms and molecules.

 

Anywhere we have free electrons, we have a hard conductor where free electrons help in conduction.

 

In electrolytes, charged Ions do conduction.

 

Dielectrics (or insulators) don't have free electrons current.

 

Free electrons mean, the electrons that are not related with a specific atom, they are allowed to move nearby the crystal lattice.
