Preposition

hi

plz make me clear that Q1: why do we use TO here instead of OF EXAMPLE is  : looked for the top to the jar  
and
Q2: what is it means? TO is use  indicate appropriation or possession.
  

Top answer

Top to the jar makes is specific that you want the lid that belongs to that particular jar. Top of the jar could mean the upper-most part of the jar itself. Either works if you mean "lid".
