Question

Is Surface tension dependent on the area of the surface?

Answer 1

Answer:

No dude ,may be not

because it is the ability of water to attract its molecule, i dont find any relation with surface here.

Answer 2

Answer:

No, Surface tension do not dependent on the area of the surface.

Explanation:

Surface Tension:

• When we draw the imaginary line on the free surface of liquid then force acting per unit length is called surface tension.

• $\sf Surface\;tension\;(\sigma) = \dfrac{force}{length}$

• $\sf Unit = N/m$

Dependence of Surface tension:

• Temperature: When temperature of the liquid is increases, surface tension is decreases.
• Effect of contamination: Due to contaminate liquid surface tension decreases.
• Effect of solution: If a solution is completely soluble then surface tension is decreases, or if a solution is partially soluble then surface tension is increases.
