39
Cohesion
attraction between molecules of the same substance
40
Adhesion
attraction between molecules of different substances
41
How does capillary action work in plants?
it helps transport water from the roots to the leaves

Hydroxide
OH-
44
Hydronium
H3O
45
Buffers
weak acids or bases that can react with strong acids or bases to prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH. help mantain homeostasis
