Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The change in pressure on coalscence of two 1.00-nm-radius water droplets at 20.0°C into a single droplet is to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Surface tension is the tension of a liquid surface that causes due to the attraction of liquid particles in the liquid surface by the liquid particle present in the bulk of the liquid. The surface tension tries to attain a minimum surface area. The formula of surface tension is given by the expression as shown below.

γ=wΔA

Image: Graph, Energy on X axis, Temp on Y axis. Horizontal line labelled "A" beginning near bottom of Y-axis. At end of this line, there is a line sloping up and to the right labelled "B". Athe end of this line there is another horizontal line labelled "C". End of Image. N2 (MW = 28.02 g/mol) Melting point = minus 210.00 degrees C Boiling point = minus 196.00 degrees C Heat of fusion = 0.7200 kJ/mol Heat capacity of liquid = 2.042 J/g/KHeat of vaporization = 5.570 kJ/mol Find A, B and C and the total energy required (in that order) in Joules (express as 'J'). Assume 100.0 g of substance. A, B and C should have four significant figures. When entering your values import your answer followed by a space then J Example: 3450. J Notice that in this particular example a decimal point was included after 3450 to indicate that the zero is significant. If the answer does not need a decimal do not include one. 1.____ 2.____ 3.____ 4.____
