Surface Tension 02
Surface Tension 02 : A measurement of the difficulty of moving a fluid past another fluid (see interfacial tension). The resistance is created by the cohesion forces between the liquid molecules. The forces make it more difficult to pass fluids past a surface. Surface tension is measured in dyne/cm. Untreated water is 72.8 dynes/cm at 20oC. Ethyl Alcohol is 22.3 and mercury is 465
