What is surface tension? why do molecules at the surface of a liquid behave differently from those within the interior? answer by selecting all true statements.
- a molecule at the surface has a lower potential energy than a molecule in the bulk of the liquid.
- a molecule at the surface has higher potential energy than a molecule in the bulk of the liquid.
-surface tension is directly proportional to the energy needed to increase its surface area.
- surface tension is related to the tendency of a liquid to maximize its surface area.
- surface tension is related to the tendency of a liquid to minimize its surface area.
- surface tension is not related to the energy needed to increase its surface area.
