The capillary water is held between  Correct Answer <span style="text-align: center;">1/3 to 31</span>

The correct answer is 1/3 to 31.

  • Capillary water is held in the capillary pores (micro pores).
  • Capillary water is retained on the soil particles by surface forces.
  • It is held so strongly that gravity cannot remove it from the soil particles. 
  • Capillary water is also known as available water.
  • The capillary water is held between 1/3 and 31 atmosphere pressure.

Bottled water is drinking water (e.g., well water, distilled water, mineral water, or spring water) packaged in PET Bottle or Glass Water Bottles. Bottled water is comprehensively regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a packaged food product. By law, the FDA regulations for bottled water must be at least as stringent as the Environmental Protection Agency standards for tap water. What inference can be drawn from the above passage?
Will capillary rise occur and if it occurs what will be capillary rise if glass capillarity tube is immersed in water and experiment is carried out by astronauts in space.
