When a tube of smaller diameter is dipped in water, the water rises in the tube due to viscosity of water.

                Fluid rise due to adhesion and fall due to cohesion.

                It Will be happen due to capillary action.

                It is due to phenomenon of surface tension.

                Due to capillary action water column built up.

                It is because of capillary action.

                It is due to capiilary action.

                Cause to surface tension.

                It will rise because of the capillary action.

                Surely it will rise by capillary effect.

                If d>5mm due to capillarity, Capillarity rise in water & capillarity dip in mercury.
