maw [93]

Answer:

The right answer to this question is: 310k

Explanation:

There's a very good formula that can help us to find this answer, but first, we need to know the temperature scale  in Celsius and Kelvin, there's an image below that will help us gather information.

The formula is quite simple, check it below:

C/5  = K-273/5

putting the values we already have in the formula it would be like this:

37/5 = K-273/5

Cutting out the fives, we can have the final result

37= K-273

37+273 = K

K= 310.

QUESTION 50<br> Cohesion, surface tension, and adhesion are the properties of water molecules that
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

enable capillarity

Explanation:

It is well known that water tends to adhere to the walls of the vessel in which it is contained. This is due to the force of adhesion which is defined as the force of attraction between unlike molecules. Cohesion is defined as the force of attraction between like molecules. In the case of a plant, cohesion of water molecules in the xylem vessels prevents the water column from breaking. The forces of adhesion, surface tension and cohesion are the basis of capillarity,that is, the rise of liquids in capillary tubes.
