Surface tension.
This phenomenon is called surface tension.
Yes, that's true.
Measurement (by counting how many drops) for liquids, such as syrup for cough gtt. abbr. Latin guttae (drops)
hydrogen bonding
Yes, it does. It reduces the number of drops that will balance on a coin by lowering the surface tension of the water.
It is surface tension.
Surface tension
cohesion/ cohesive forces
Surface Tension
Surface tension causes molecules to hold to themselves more tightly. Therefore high surface tension liquids, like pure water, will form a taller drop and low surface tension substances, like oil, will spread out and be flat.
The inherent property of any substance is to aggregate together, which is caused by Van der Waals' forces. These forces cause the molecules to be held together and create surface tension, in the case of liquids. When you drop water onto a surface, the water molecules adhere together due to holding those forces and try to come closer. Geometrically, a sphere has the greatest surface area to volume ratio, which is also the most stable shape for liquids to conform into. Thus, you get rounded drops or beads.
drops of water form on surfaces near the ground Dew/condensate ; see relevant link .
Drops.
This phenomenon is called surface tension.
well............it is called surface tension! You will learn about it in 6th grade science!!! Thanks! :)
The water is known as dew.
Yes, that's true.
