Vapour Pressure:The pressure exerted by the vapour of a liquid/solid on the liquid/solid when in thermodynamic equilibrium. Vapour pressure is constant at a given fluid/solid temperature.
Surface Tension is the property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules
Viscosity is a resistance of a fluid (liquid or gas) to a change in shape, or movement of neighbouring portions relative to one another. Viscosity denotes opposition to flow. The reciprocal of the viscosity is called the fluidit
