Interface |
Boundary between 2 phases |
|
Surface tension |
Force that pulls the molecules at the interface together, w/c results to the contraction of the surface |
|
Dynes/cm N/m |
Unit for surface tension |
|
Interfacial tension |
Force per unit length existing at the interface between two immiscible lq. Phases |
|
Force/ length of the surface |
Formula for surface tension |
|
Surface free energy |
This energy increases when surface of the same mass of liquid increases |
|
Capillary rise Du Nuoy Ring method |
2 measurements of surface and interfacial tension |
|
Y= 1/2 hgrd |
Formula for capillary rise |
|
Y= dial reading in dynes/ 2 x ring circumference x Beta |
Formula for Du Nuoy Ring method |
|
Du Nuoy Ring method |
This method depends on the principle that the force necessary to detatch a platinum- iridium ring immersed at the surface or interface is proportional to the surface or interfacial tension |
|
Tensiometer |
Other name for Du Nuoy Ring method |
