Which one rust nails better does tap water soap or lemon juice?
yes any liquid can rust a nail
What is the change of state from liquid to gas at the surface of a liquid?
When a liquid changes to a gas below its surface as well as at the surface, the liquid is at a temperature equal to or greater than its boiling point.
What kind of liquid can clean a penny the best?
Any gentle degreaser. Try starting with dishwashing detergent and water.
When lemonade soapy water and plain water are soaked up by a paper towel why are the first two absorbed more than the water?
There is a natural attractive tension that exists among the molecules of liquids and, therefore, within the surfaces of liquids. This Surface Tension is what enables rainwater, for instance, to form into separate droplets on a window pane. The Surface Tension of the liquid also enables each droplet to assume its symmetrical, uniform shape rather than spreading itself thinly and randomly across any hard surface. If a open window is horizontally hinged and thus sloping, the droplets will take a more circular shape as the window is opened further and the stretching effect of gravity is lessened. In a smaller droplet the surface tension becomes larger in proportion to any other forces acting on the liquid and this allows it to become more nearly spherical in spite of the pull of gravity. It is the same attractive forces between molecules that keep a droplet clinging to a surface, due to the attractive forces between the liquid molecules and the molecules that make up the harder surface. The same attractive forces cause the liquid to be taken up into an absorbing medium such as tissue paper. This time there is no clean, even and solid surface for the liquid to adhere to; the tissue comprises a tight tangle of the minute surfaces of all the very fine fibres that make up the paper. If the adhesive force between liquid and tissue fibre is stronger than the force of molecular attraction within the liquid, then the liquid will be drawn into the tissue. In other words, if the Surface Tension is not too great a liquid will be absorbed into a paper towel. And, if the Surface Tension can be reduced the absorption will happen more quickly. The Surface Tension of a liquid can be reduced by dissolving another substance into it. The surface tension of pure water, for example, would be higher than the surface tension of the same water with soap or lemonade concentrate mixed into it. One of the deliberately selected properties of a soap or detergent is its ability to greatly reduce the surface tension of tap water. Heating it up also reduces the surface tension of water. That is why your lemonade and your warm soapy water are more quickly absorbed by the paper towel.
Why does chlorine evaporate?
Chlorine evaporates for exactly the same reason that any other substance evaporates. For any individual atom or molecule, if the random thermal motion of that particle takes it in the direction of the surface of the liquid, with sufficient speed to overcome the attraction that the liquid exerts, it will evaporate.
Is there any liquid water in the moon?
no Not on the surface; some speculate that there may be frozen water beneath the surface.
Why does low-surface-tension-liquids-clean-better than high-surface-tension-liquids?
Low surface tension means high wetting as it represents low contact angle. It is therefore very easy for a low surface tension water / liquid to wet the surface ( usually solid) and get rid of the dirty in a same way a surfactant does unlike a high surface tension liquid which can't wett the surface containing the dirty....

Does mercury have any rivers?
Earth is the only known planet to have any sort of liquid on its surface.
How do you make nails clean and shiny?
you scrape any bits of dead skin or dirt out and paint over clear nail varnish
Where can m8 paper be used to detect contamination by liquid nerve or bliser agents?
On any surface where there appears to be liquid chemical agents.
I want to get my nails done but every time I go the places I seem to end up at are un-clean. Now I need to take my friends to a good nail salon. Do you have any segestions?
L.A. Nails in Dubuque Iowa is quite nice. Very clean and walk-ins welcome.
Which one rust nails better does tap water soap or lemon juice?
yes any liquid can rust a nail
How are evaportion and boiling different?
Evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid at any temperature as long as the substance is a liquid. Boiling occurs throughout the liquid and occurs at the boiling point.
How do you clean drinkwell fountains for pets?
You can use any dishwashing liquid, but be sure to rinse well
Are there any surface liquids on titan or venus?
There are no liquids present on the surface of Venus. However, the appear to be lakes, seas, asn streams of liquid methane on the surface of Titan.
Evaporation only occurs at the surface of liquid true or false?
False it can happen on any surface with moisture on it. ( think i spelled moisture wrong).
What is the change of state from liquid to gas at the surface of a liquid?
When a liquid changes to a gas below its surface as well as at the surface, the liquid is at a temperature equal to or greater than its boiling point.
