The contact angle formed between a solid and a liquid depends on

The contact angle formed between a solid and a liquid depends on

Options

  1. Athe material of the solid
  2. Bthe mass of the solid
  3. Cthe shape of the solid
  4. Dthe material of the liquid

Correct answer

D. the material of the liquid

Step-by-step solution

The contact angle between a solid and a liquid is determined by the adhesive forces between the liquid and solid molecules and the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules.

Therefore, it depends on the nature of the materials involved, which means it depends on the material of the solid and the material of the liquid.

It is independent of the mass and shape of the solid.
