A liquid rises against the pull of gravity through a narrow space through capillary action. This results from a competition between the intermolecular forces between the molecules of the liquid itself and the forces between the liquid and the walls of the container.

Because air contracts as it cools, the air pressure inside a freezer is typically lower than on the outside. why do ice cubes inside a freezer tend to shrink over time? a. the ice dissolves oxygen from the air, forming a denser crystalline matrix. b. the ice reacts chemically with carbon dioxide in the air, forming gaseous carbon compounds. c. the ice melts, and then the liquid freezes as ice crystals on the bottom of the freezer. d. the ice sublimes, and then the water vapor deposits as ice crystals on the sides of the freezer.
