What two forces limit the height of capillary action will take water up a tube?
What two forces limit the height of capillary action will take water up a tube? Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the walls is stronger than the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules. The height to which capillary action will take water in a uniform circular tube (picture to right) is limited by surface […]
What is the effect of molecular weight on melting and boiling points of alkanes?
What is the effect of molecular weight on melting and boiling points of alkanes? Their melting and boiling points of alkanes are relatively low. The higher the molecular weight (the greater the number of carbons), the higher the boiling point. What is the major use of alkanes? Use of Alkanes Alkanes are important raw materials […]
