Mercury has an angle of contact equal to 140^@ with soda lime glass. A narrow tube of radius 1.00 mm made of this glass is dipped in a trough containing mefcury. By what amount does the mercury dip down in the tube relative to the liquid surface outside? Surface tension of mercury at the temperature of the experiment is 0.465 N m^-1 . Density of mercury = 13.6 xx 10^3 kg m^-3

Why does mercury drop its level in a capillary tube?

Explain why Water on a clean glass surface tends to spread out while mercury on the same surface tends to form drops. (Put differently, water wets glass while mercury does not.)

The relative density of mercury is 13.6. What does this statement mean?

What is the pressure inside the drop of mercury of radius 3.00 mm at room temperature? Surface tension of mercury at that temperature (20^@C) is 4.65 xx 10^-1 N m^-1 . The atmospheric pressure is 1.01 xx10^-5 Pa. Also give the excess pressure inside the drop.
