Surface tension is the measure of how difficult it is to stretch or break the surface of a liquid. It is caused by the cohesive forces between molecules in the liquid, which create a thin film at the surface that resists external forces. This property is responsible for phenomena such as capillary action and the formation of droplets.

To measure volume using a graduated cylinder, you pour the liquid you want to measure into the cylinder and read the measurement at the bottom of the meniscus, which is the curved surface of the liquid. Make sure to read the measurement at eye level for accuracy. The volume is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm^3).
If the liquid surface tension is less than or equal to the critical surface tension of a surface, you would expect the liquid to spread out and wet the surface. This is because the liquid will be able to overcome the cohesive forces holding it together and adhere to the surface.
Surface tension is found in liquids and it is the result of the cohesive forces between the molecules at the surface of the liquid. This creates a "skin" on the surface of the liquid that resists external forces.
The process of changing from a liquid to a gas at the surface of the liquid is called evaporation. This occurs when molecules at the liquid's surface gain enough energy to overcome the attractive forces holding them in the liquid phase and escape into the gas phase. Evaporation is influenced by factors such as temperature, surface area, and the vapor pressure of the liquid.
The tendency of a liquid to minimize its surface area is called surface tension. This phenomenon is due to the cohesive forces between the molecules in the liquid that pull them together and reduce the surface area.
Surface tension is the term used to describe the difficulty of stretching or breaking the surface of a liquid. It is caused by the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules at the surface.
You can insert a thermometer directly into a liquid, but not into a solid. You can fairly easily measure the surface temperature of a solid object, but that does not necessarily reflect the temperature inside.
Surface tension coefficient, also known as surface tension, is the force acting on the surface of a liquid that causes it to behave like a stretched elastic membrane. It is a measure of the strength of the attractive forces between molecules at the surface of a liquid. The higher the surface tension, the more difficult it is to break the surface of the liquid.
The surface tension caused over a liquid is cased by the molecular bonds of the liquid.
Immerse it in a liquid, and measure how much the level of the liquid rises.
Surface tension is a property of a liquid that causes its surface to behave like an elastic membrane. It is due to the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules which results in the liquid trying to minimize its surface area. This leads to effects like droplets forming or insects being able to walk on water.

It is more difficult to measure the temperature of a solid compared to a liquid because solids have lower thermal conductivity, meaning heat transfer is slower, making it harder to reach thermal equilibrium with the thermometer. Additionally, solids have uneven surfaces that may not make good contact with the thermometer, leading to inaccurate readings.

The curve is referred to as the meniscus.
You would use a graduated cylinder to measure the volume of a liquid. Simply pour the liquid into the cylinder and read the volume at the meniscus, the bottom of the curved surface of the liquid.
