Write the effect of temperature of surface tension and viscosity. Give reason to that .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Surface tension decreases with increase in temperature. This is due to increase in energy with increase in temperature and decrease in attractive forces among molecules.
Viscosity decreases with increase in temperature. This is due to increase in kinetic energy of molecules. The inter moleculer forces are overcome molecules shift from one layer to another easily.
