If a liquid does not wet glass, its angle of contact is

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the angle of contact when a liquid does not wet glass, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Concept of Wetting**: - Wetting occurs when a liquid spreads on a solid surface. If a liquid wets a surface, the angle of contact (or contact angle) is less than 90 degrees. Conversely, if a liquid does not wet the surface, the angle of contact is greater than 90 degrees. 2. **Identify the Condition for Non-Wetting**: ...
