Yes it is. Surface tension caused by hydrogen bonding within the water is the reason. Hydrogen bonding is caused by the strong polar nature of the water molecule. It's polarity means the positive end of one molecule is attracted to the negative end of another molecule.
This happens when you smash an old-fashioned mercury thermometre! The mercury spills out of the glass as it is a liquid and it also breaks up into spherical droplets at the edges, that will roll around on a hard floor and look just like ball-bearings. It does not appear to react with the floor or furniture.
droppers are for addition of liquids drop by drop. it can help us drop liquid little by little. -------ennael alabaz
A pippet is a piece of equipment used to add liquid to something. You squeeze the top and it lets a drop of liquid out of the end.
The size of a drop of any liquid depends on how the drop is created, so it is not possible to say as a general rule that any particular amount of water is in a "drop of water." You first have to know the size of the drop of water.
An individual spherical bacterium is a coccus, and when you have a chain of them, it is referred to as streptococcus.
A droplet is a very small drop of a liquid. It is typically used to describe tiny, spherical or nearly spherical particles of liquid. For example, raindrops are droplets of water falling from the sky, and when you put a drop of water on a surface,
Surface tension is the physical phenomenon that causes a liquid drop to assume a spherical shape. This is because a spherical shape minimizes the surface area of the drop, thereby reducing surface tension energy.
One is the liquid's surface tension. A drop of water will be quite spherical because is has strong surface tension, meaning the edges of the droplet are drawn into the centre. Another factor could be the speed with which the drop falls, as the air particles will have to be pushed apart quicker, making the droplet more streamlines, therefore less spherical.

Spherical to tear-drop shape. The latter is the most hydrodynamically efficient, forced by the falling drop's slipstream, with a spherical-cap nose tapering back to a pointed tail.
a sphere is the most efficient shape to contain volume. surface tension draws the drop into the sphere, like elastic.
Yes, "drip drop" is an example of an onomatopoeia because it imitates the sound of liquid falling or dripping.
A drop of liquid acquires a spherical shape due to surface tension, which causes the liquid molecules to be attracted to each other, minimizing the surface area and forming the most efficient shape, a sphere, to contain the volume of liquid. This shape has the least surface area for a given volume, making it favorable for liquids.
No, liquids do not have a fixed shape. They take the shape of the container they are in.
The nuclear binding energy per nucleon is similar to the surface tension in a liquid drop, causing nuclei to behave like stable liquid drops. Additionally, the deformation of the nucleus due to forces acting between nucleons can be described using the liquid drop model, where the nucleus has a defined surface and volume.
Considering the rain droplets as spherical body. We have two forces acting on the rain drop when it is falling through the sky, namely the resistance force due to friction(drag force)upwards and its weight downwards. Th rain drop falling from such distance attain a terminal velocity while falling i.e their speed becomes constant after sometime. This happens when the drag force equals the weight of drop,, this happens because drag force increases with velocity of the drop. Drag force= .5*rho*v2*A(frontal area)*Cd(coefficient of drag) Weight=m*g=rho*volume of spherical drop=rho*4/3*r3. When we equalize it, we get the Terminal Velocity(v) varying directly as sqr of r(radius of drop) So larger drop means, larger terminal velocity and hence less time taken for falling. So larger rain drop falls faster.
The falling of cold liquid is called dripping.
