Non-leaking bottle

After not sleeping for the whole night before the new school day, something reminds me. The diagram which is ugly drawn by me shows that when a vacuum machine extracts particles above a whole closed container which is with some water, will the water be extracted upwards? The answer is no, it's because water is not compressible( It doesn't vary itself very much due to the strong intermolecular forces). Maybe I should learn the kinetic theory before reading some gas law. I totally omitted something:)

Now I got of something. What's the force by the surface of water acting downwards?

0 or others? I need you help.

The water starts boiling if it's low enough pressure in the vacuum-machine, doesn't it?

The rate is faster than at standard pressure.

In my posted diagram,

Is the force acting to left and right large than the force acting downwards?

It is 1atm more in my case, right?

I should have stated that my formula also assumes that the angle of contact with the bottle is 0 degrees, whilst in reality this angle would be different for water and say glass (between 50 and 60 degrees). That would then account for adhesive and coersive forces too and add an extra cosine of theta factor along with h * rho * g.
