Question:
The surface tension of which of the following liquid is maximum
The surface tension of which of the following liquid is maximum
Updated On: Oct 10, 2023
- H2O
- C6H6
- CH3OH
- C2H5OH
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Due to its polarity, which is caused by hydrogen ends that are positive in comparison to oxygen ends that are negative, water molecules are attracted to one another, resulting in water having the highest surface tension.
Therefore, the correct option is (A): H2O

Liquid State
The liquid state of matter has the following properties:
- As the particles moves it start moving everywhere inside the volume filled by the liquid.
- Liquids have a strong inter-particle force, more inter-particle space than solids and enough kinetic energy.
- It can be transformed into solids due to the solidification process.
- Evaporation is the conversion of liquids to gases.
- Liquid particles begin to flow more quickly when the temperature rises.
- Liquids are difficult to compress because there is less space between particles for particles to migrate.
- Constant volume but no constant shape.
- In liquids, the rate of diffusion is faster than in solids.
- Inter molecular attraction between particles is weaker than that between solids.
