Calculate the surface tension for the solid/water interface (sw) if the droplet adopted a shape with the contact angle 60°. What is the surface tension for the solid/water interface (Ysw) if the droplet spreads over the surface? Estimate the average displacement of a molecule of a surfactant over the surface of the droplet within 0.001 s if the diffusion coefficient is 10-1⁰ m² s-1.
