Question
Chapter 22, Problem 22.31E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The capillary depression of a column of mercury in tube with radius
Concept introduction:
Surface tension effect shows itself in systems where a cylindrical solid surface is present. A very narrow cylindrical surface is called a capillary. When a capillary is immersed into a liquid, the surface tension that exists at the liquid-vapor interface will act according to the Laplace-Young equation.

Use this to calculate the atomic packing fraction of a 20.-nm silver particle. In other words, calculate the ratio of the volume taken up by Ag atoms to the volume of the entire nanoparticle. c Based on the result of part (b), silver conforms to which type of cubic crystal lattice? A simple cubic B body-centered cubic C face-centered cubic d A cubic Ag ingot having a mass of 5.0-g is processed to form a batch of 20.-nm Ag nanoparticles.
