What is the tendency of liquids to decreases their surface area to the smallest size possible?
The surface area of the liquid can decrease when there is increase in the temperature of the day,what is called evaporation is been taking place in the surface of the liquid,wchich decreases the liquid area.
What does evaperation mean?
Evaporation is when a liquid becomes a gas.
What are 3 forms of evaporation?
1st Form- Liquid to gas evaporation 2nd Form- Transpiration (From a plant's leaves to the atmosphere) 3rd Form- Sublimation (From a solid to a gas)
Curved surface of a liquid?
Meniscus
Calculation of contact angle?
Angle of contact is the angle between a tangent to the liquid surface at the interface and the solid surface inside the liquid. For concave surfaces, it is acute . For convex surface , it is obtuse.
Is evaporation a liquid into a gas?
No. Evaporation is when the surface of a liquid turns to into gas.
What is vaporization at the surface of a liquid that is not boiling?
Evaporation
When vaporization takes place on the surface of a liquid is called?
If vaporization takes place at the surface of a liquid, it is called evaporation. but when evaporation occurs throughout the substance it is called boiling.
What is the vaporization at the surface of a liquid called?
Evaporation. It only happens at the surface of a liquid.
How does increase in surface area effect rate of evaporation?
Evaporation is sometimes called a surface phenomenon. The molecules on the surface of the liquid tend to suspend themselves in the atmosphere. To change these liquid molecules to gaseous form they require heat energy. They take energy called latent heat from the surrounding particles and thus change themselves to gas molecules. That is why evaporation is called surface phenomenon. As it takes latent heat from the surrounding particles it also causes cooling.
What is vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid?
That would be evaporation; the particles inside the liquid escape from the surface and into the atmosphere/air.
What is the phase change from a liquid to a gas from the surface of a liquid?
evaporation
What is change only on the surface of a liquid?
Evaporation.
Does evaporation occur at the surface of the liquid?
Yes.
Is when a liquid becomes a gas at the surface?
Evaporation.
Does evaporation occurs at the surface of a liquid?
False
Vaporaztion at the surface of a liquid that is not boiling is?
Evaporation
