How does sodium carbonate affect the surface tension of water?
sodium carbonate has quite amount of salt in it. And the salt water is inversely proportional to water containing soap.Hence sodium carbonate affect the surface tension of water rather we say sodium carbonate loss the strength of the surface tension of the water.thanks by,(Arjun Babhulkar)
What physical phenomenon cause the spherical shape of raindrops?
Surface tension
What are water droplets held together by?
The surface tension of the water holds it together. Water has an almost magnetic property in that it sticks to itself. The raindrops physically cannot be too bog because air resistance would rip it apart, but it has great enough surface tension to avoid being reduced to individual molecules.
What is released when water condenses as hydrogen bonds form?
surface tension
Identify the properties of water that are important for life to be able to exist?
The main properties of water: density, freezing point, boiling point, specific heat, polar covalent bonds, no smell, colourless, associated molecules by hydrogen bonds, surface tension, ability as solvent, etc.
How would you expect the surface tension of water to be affected by increasing temperature?
surface tension of water is affected by temperature as it starts to evaporate when there is hot temperature but due to unnatural medium its surface starts to freeze when the temperature outside is cold,so this gives the reason that surface tension of water is affected by temperature.
When water is deeper does it have a thicker water surface tension?
No, surface tension is a phenomenon of a single outer layer of molecules, so it is not affected by the depth of the water underneath it.
What is a force that acts on particles at a liquids surface?
Surface tension. It always tends to acquire minimum surface area thats why water droplets form spherical shape.
Surface Tension is found in what?
Surface tension is found in Liquid
What is surface tension coefficient?
define coefficient of surface tension
What liquid have the strongest surface tension?
Mercury is the liquid with the strongest surface tension.
Is the inward force among the molecules of a liquid?
The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
What is the effect of sodium chloride on the surface tension of water?
The surface tension of water is increased for salted water.Sodium chloride increase the surface tension of water.
How would the surface tension of water be affected if water was a less polar molecule?
It would be lower than 72 mN/m
How do you break the surface tension?
Adding surfactants the surface tension decrease.
Does water have the highest surface tension?
No, mercury has a higher surface tension.
Is surface tension a solid liquid or gas?
Surface tension is a characteristic of liquids.
