A drop of olive oil of radius 0.25 mm spreads into a circular film of radius 5 cm on the water surface. Estimate the molecular size of the olive oil

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To estimate the molecular size of the olive oil drop that spreads into a circular film, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the area of the circular film The area \( A \) of a circle is given by the formula: \[ A = \pi r^2 \] where \( r \) is the radius of the film. Given that the radius of the film is 5 cm, we can substitute this value into the formula: ...
