Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Reason for water to bead up and hexane to spread after it gets spilled on waxed floor has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The forces present between similar molecules that stick together through a force of attraction is termed as cohesive forces. The forces present between different molecules that stick together through a force of attraction is termed as adhesive forces

Identify the true statements about surface tension. Molecules along the surface of a liquid behave differently than those in the bulk liquid. Water forming a droplet as it falls from a faucet is a primary example of surface tension. Mercury has a lower surface tension than water. Surface tension increases as the temperature of the liquid rises. Cohesive forces attract the molecules of the liquid to one another.
Identify the true statements about surface tension. Molecules along the surface of a liquid behave differently than those in the bulk liquid. Surface tension increases as the temperature of the liquid rise. Cohesive forces attract the molecules of the liquid to one another. Water forming a droplet as it falls from a faucet is a primary example of surface tension. Mercury has a lower surface tension than water.
Cohesion happens between all molecules in a liquid, but because the molecules in the middle of the droplet pull each equally in all directions they generally cancel each out. This strong inward force causing molecules on the surface to contract and resist being pulled apart. This is known as surface tension.  Based on this information. Answer the question .
