water molecules stay close to each other through cohesion, the collective action of hydrogen bonds between water molecules. cohesion plants draw water upwards from the root through the stem's transport tubes (xylem) to the leaf. this transport occurs even in large trees and against gravity. transpiration, evaporation of water from plant leaves, creates a tension on water molecules being pulled up from the stem and roots.

water also has high (the attraction of one substance to another) properties because of its polar nature. adhesion of water molecules to plant cell walls counteract gravity while water is transported from roots to leaves.

water exhibits a very high surface tension when compared to other liquids. surface tension is a property of a liquid that holds the surface together and allows it to resist an external force. by capillary action, the water forms concave menisci inside the pores. the high surface tension of water pulls the concavity outwards, generating enough force to lift water from the roots to the leaves of plants.

thus, cohesion, along with adhesion and surface tension creates a capillary action that keeps water molecules interacting and moving through the plants out to the leaf cells.

therefore, option d) is the correct answer.

the dissociation of nickel hydroxide is follows:

$ni(oh)_2 > ni^2^+ + 2 oh^-$

$ksp for no(oh)2 = 5.5 * 10^-^1^6$

$5.5 * 10^-^1^6 = s * (2 s)^2 = 4 s^3$

$s^3 = 137.5 * 10^-^1^8$

$s = 5.14 * 10^-^6 = [oh^-]$

the concentration of hydroxide ion is

$5.14 * 10^-^6 = [oh^-]$

the equilibrium constant value of nickel hydroxide is = 6.1 * 10^-^1^6 and thus equilibrium equation can be written as:

$k = [ ni^2^+] * [oh^-]^2$

$6.1 * 10^-^1^6 = [ ni^2] * [5.14 * 10^-^6]^2$

$[ ni^2^+] = 0.23 * 10^-^4 mol /l$

thus, concentration of ni is 0.23 * 10^-^4 mol /l

chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. these processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions. some reactions produce heat and are called exothermic reactions and others may require heat to enable the reaction to occur, which are called endothermic reactions. understanding chemical changes is a major part of the science of chemistry.

Achemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. he carefully weighs out of oxalic acid , a diprotic acid that can be purchased inexpensively in high purity, and dissolves it in of distilled water. the student then titrates the oxalic acid solution with his sodium hydroxide solution. when the titration reaches the equivalence point, the student finds he has used of sodium hydroxide solution. calculate the molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution. be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
