Question
Chapter 15, Problem 17E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The explanation for the fact related to the apparent surface tension and intermolecular attractive forces in mercury and water is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The tendency of the particles to stick together is known as intermolecular attraction. Liquid has several measurable properties that depend on intermolecular attractions. A sphere has the smallest surface area possible for a drop of any given volume. This tendency towards a minimum surface area is the result of the surface tension.
