Chapter 22, Problem 22.12E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The approximate surface tension of a liquid required such that a razor blade will not float on 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 minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression shown below.

γ=wΔA
