Is it possible to siphen water from a lower container to a higher elevation container?

meaning you must add energy to do it.A siphon uses the low pressure created when fluid is pulled by gravity out of a tube.The low pressure will suck up water into the tube, thus perpetuating itself until all the water is gone.But this only works if the final position of the fluid is lower than the initial position, otherwise the suction force will not be strong enough to do anything.......
No. Raising water requires that you raise it's potential energy, meaning you must add energy to do it. A siphon uses the low pressure created when fluid is pulled by gravity out of a tube. The low pressure will suck up water into the tube, thus perpetuating itself until all the water is gone. But this only works if the final position of the fluid is lower than the initial position, otherwise the suction force will not be strong enough to do anything.
