Column I | Column II |
(i) Adhesive forces is greater than cohesive forces | [A] |
(ii) Cohesive forces is greater than adhesive forces | [B] |
(iii) Pressure at A > pressure at B | [C] A mercury drop is pressed between two parallel plates of glass |

Ans.
(i) [A]
(ii)[B,C,D]
(iii)[A,D]
(iv)[B,C]
Sol.
When cohesive forces are greater then adhesive forces shape of meniscus is concave from liquid side and pressure is greater in concave side due to surface tension.
