Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given statement, ‘there are strong intermolecular forces of attraction between liquid molecules and also, the liquid has a low surface tension’ is correct or not, is to be identified.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given statement that, ‘surface tension increases, when the temperature is increased’ is correct or not, is to be identified.
(c)
Interpretation:
The given statement that, ‘stronger the intermolecular forces, lower the viscosity of the liquid’ is correct or not, is to be identified.
(d)
Interpretation:
The given statement that, ‘viscosity of a liquid increases on increasing the temperature’ is correct or not, is to be identified.
(e)
Interpretation:
The given statement that, ‘a rise in the water level in a capillary is due to the attractive forces between the water molecules and the molecules of the glass’ is correct or not, is to be identified.
