Match List-I with List-II and choose the correct answer from the options given below.

List - I	List - II
(a) Cohesion	(i) More attraction in liquid phase
(b) Adhesion	(ii) Mutual attraction among water molecules
(c) Surface tension	(iii) Water loss in liquid phase
(d) Guttation	(iv) Attraction towards polar surfaces

To match the terms in List‑I with the correct descriptions in List‑II, we consider the meaning of each physical phenomenon.

1. Cohesion (a)
Cohesion refers to the attractive forces that water molecules exert on each other. This is exactly described by “Mutual attraction among water molecules” which is option (ii).

2. Adhesion (b)
Adhesion is the tendency of water molecules to be attracted to other surfaces, especially polar (hydrophilic) surfaces. Hence it matches “Attraction towards polar surfaces���, option (iv).

3. Surface tension (c)
Surface tension arises because molecules at the surface experience a net inward pull, leading to “More attraction in liquid phase”. This corresponds to option (i).

4. Guttation (d)
Guttation is the process by which plants exude liquid water through specialized structures, effectively a “Water loss in liquid phase”. This aligns with option (iii).

Putting these correspondences together gives the complete matching:

a – ii,  b – iv,  c – i,  d – iii
