Question

What property of water explains what happens to it in zero gravity

Answer 1

Answer:

Polarity

Explanation : Water's polarity allows it to dissolve other polar substances very easily. When a polar substance is put in water, the positive ends of its molecules are attracted to the negative ends of the water molecules, and vice versa. Because of Capillary action occurs because water is sticky, thanks to the forces of cohesion (water molecules like to stay close together). Since they are close together, they can't move because they ain't enough space to move they like a liquid or solid. Adhesion of water to the walls of a vessel will cause an upward force on the liquid at the edges and result in a meniscus which turns upward. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. They both are holding the momentum in place and nothing really happening because it trapping the momentum from moving. Both just hold the structure but, nothing is happening with capillary action and Adhesion.
