What substance produced by the body lowers the surface tension of water?
Bile
Why does temperature of water lowers on adding glucose?
It will increase the surface tension of water hence temperature decreases. If you add phenol to water temperature increase as it decreases the surface tension.
What is the effect of pH on surface tension?
Surface tension typically decreases as the pH of a solution becomes more acidic or basic. This is due to changes in the concentration of ions at the liquid-air interface, which affects the attractive forces between molecules. In general, a change in pH can disrupt the hydrogen bonding between water molecules, leading to a decrease in surface tension.
What is the effect of detergent on the surface tension of milk?
since milk has water as a main component, water has surface tension as the forces adhesion( sticks to stuff like the side of the glass) are stronger that the cohesion (makes water keep to itself) forces
Does soap affect the ability of the paperclip to float?
Yes, soap can affect the ability of the paperclip to float because soap lowers the surface tension of water. When the surface tension is reduced, the paperclip may no longer be able to stay afloat and could sink.
Why does a sweet tart make Diet Coke erupt?
Diet Coke erupts when you add sugar to it because the sugar lowers the surface tension in the soda. The bubbles will then be able to break the surface and cause the eruption.
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 do different materials dissolved in water affect the surface tension of the water?
what types of materials? Dish soap and vegetable oil, I know for a fact, don't dissolve and separate the hydrogen bonds, causing a weaker surface tension. Salt does little to nothing (according to my chem and bio teacher). Sorry if any of this is wrong or not what you wanted.
The condition of newborns called respiratory distress syndrome is caused by?
RDS is caused by deficiency of surfactant a substance which lowers surface tension and prevents the alveoli from collapsing. It is common in premature babies.
How does floating razor sinks into water when you introduced dtergent in water?
When detergent is introduced into water, it disrupts the surface tension of the water. This lowers the surface tension enough that the razor is able to sink. The detergent molecules interfere with the cohesive forces between water molecules, causing the razor to break through the surface and sink.
What lowers the salinity near the surface of the ocean?
evaporation
What ingredient in toothpaste stops gum disease?
You have the one ingredient in the tooth paste, that lowers the surface tension of water. You physically wash away the infecting microorganisms from the mouth. Use of antiseptic ingredients in toothpastes, should be discouraged.
