Does cohesion create surface tension in water?
Cohesion of water molecules occurs through the formation of hydrogen bonds between molecules
Is the inward force among the molecule of a liquid?
The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
The skinlike surface on a liquid that pulls it together into the smallest possible area?
surface tension
What are the factors affecting the surface tension?
The main factor is the strength of cohesion between molecules. For instance, water molecules have a slightly negative and a slightly positive end which makes them stick together like magnets. A molecule with more extreme positive and negative charges would have a stronger surface tension.
How does surface tension and viscosity affect the flow of liquids?
Viscosity is the resistance of flow and surface tension is the lateral force of the bonds between the molecules
Is the inward force among the molecules of a liquid?
The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
Is the inward force among the molecules of the liquid?
The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
SURFACE TENSION?
Te tension on the surface of an object.
How strongy are the particles held together in liquid?
It varies from same as in a solid (glass, mercury), to that of a gas (and check out the "triple point") You should study - surface tension.
Does cohesion create surface tension in water?
Cohesion of water molecules occurs through the formation of hydrogen bonds between molecules
Is the inward force among the molecule of a liquid?
The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
What is surface tension.?
Surface tension is defined as the elasticlike force that exists at the surface.
What makes some liquids have a greater surface tension than others?
The surface tension is primarily due to the arrangement of electrons of the molecules that comprise the liquid.
What liquid have the strongest surface tension?
Mercury is the liquid with the strongest surface tension.
The skinlike surface on a liquid that pulls it together into the smallest possible area?
surface tension
What is surface tenion?
surface tension is simply liquid (usually water) molecules that join together and creates an invisible "skin" around the top of a glass when you fill it to the top very slowly and it goes over the brim but doesn't spill. surface tension is made by cohesion.
What is primarily responsible for holding water molecules together in the liquid state?
Hydrogen bonds caused by the polar properties of a water molecule.
