Answer:
Adhesion is the attraction of atoms and molecules to like particles.
Explanation:
Liquid as a state of matter is defined by certain properties. According to this question, the following description of the properties of liquids are true except that Adhesion is the attraction of atoms and molecules to UNLIKE PARTICLES.
- Viscosity, as rightly stated, is the resistance of a liquid to flowing
- Capillary action, which is the pulling up of a liquid against gravity, is aided by the cohesive and adhesive properties of that liquid.
- Surface tension, which is the energy required to resist external forces, thereby increasing its surface area, is dependent on the strength of the intermolecular forces of the liquid particles.
- Surface tension, according to this question, is the ability of a liquid to minimize its surface area.
The above points are true except adhesion is the attraction of atoms and molecules to like particles, which is false.
