Question
Chapter 12, Problem 121RQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The comparison between the reasoning used to explain the surface tension of liquids and the reasoning suggesting that edges and corners of crystals dissolve more rapidly than the flat surfaces are to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Surface tension is defined as the tension which arises at the surface film in the liquid by the forces of attraction of the particles present on the surface layer by the particles present in the bulk of liquid.
Surface tension is the tendency of a liquid surface to attain a minimum surface area.
