Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The change in pressure on coalscence of two 1.00-nm-radius water droplets at 20.0°C into a single droplet is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Surface tension is the tension of a liquid surface that causes due to the attraction of liquid particles in the liquid surface by the liquid particle present in the bulk of the liquid. The surface tension tries to attain a minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression as shown below.

γ=wΔA

The properties of two pure liquids, X and Y, are investigated. First, 50 uL each of X and Y were added on a glass slide. It was observed that X formed globules while Y spreaded throughout the slide. Furthermore, an instrument-based analysis showed that liquids X and Y have comparable molar masses. Based from the information above, which of these two: 1. Has a higher surface tension at a fixed temperature? 2. Is more likely to have hydrogen bonding interactions among its molecules? 3. Is more useful as a drying agent?
What is the correct order for the surface tension of the following substances?   Question 1 options:   C8H18 < CHCl3< H2O   H2O < CHCl3 < C8H18   C8H18 < H2O < CHCl3   CHCl3 < C8H18< H2O   CHCl3 < H2O < C8H18
Liquid A is known to have a lower surface tension and lower vapor pressure than Liquid B. Use these facts to predict the result of each experiment in the table below, if you can. experiment Identical wire loops are dipped into Liquid A and Liquid B, so that a film of liquid forms across the loops (like the bubble solution on a child's bubble blowing wand). The width of each loop is increased slowly and the forces F and F needed to make the loops 5% wider are measured. Small amounts of Liquid A and Liquid B are sprayed into the air, where they form perfect spheres with a volume of 45.0 μL. The diameters of these drops are measured with a high-speed camera, and their surface areas SA and Sg calculated. A A predicted outcome will be greater than FB will be less than F will be equal to F It's impossible to predict whether For FB will be greater without more information. SA will be greater than S Swill be less than Sp SA will be equal to S It's impossible to predict whether Sor S will be…
