If a glass rod is dipped in mercury and withdrawn out, the mercury does not wet the rod because 

1. Angle of contact is acute

2. Cohesion force is more

3. Adhesion force is more

4. The density of mercury is more

Mercury does not wet glass, wood or iron because

1. Cohesive force is less than the adhesive force

2. Cohesive force is greater than the adhesive force

3. The angle of contact is less than 90^o

4. Cohesive force is equal to the adhesive force

Surface tension of a liquid is found to be influenced by

1. It increases with the increase of temperature

2. Nature of the liquid in contact

3. Presence of soap that increases it

4. Its variation with the concentration of the liquid

When a drop of water is dropped on oil surface, then

1. It will mix up with oil

2. It spreads in the form of a film

3. It will deform

4. It remains spherical

Small liquid drops assume spherical shape because

1. Atmospheric pressure exerts a force on a liquid drop

2. Volume of a spherical drop is minimum

3. Gravitational force acts upon the drop

4. Liquid tends to have the minimum surface area due to surface tension

It is easy to wash clothes in hot water because its

1. Surface tension is more

2. Surface tension is less

3. Consumes less soap

4. None of these

The force required to separate two glass plates of area ${10}^{-2}{\mathrm{m}}^2$ with a film of water 0.05 mm thick between them, is (Surface tension of water is $70\times {10}^{-3 }$N/m)

1. 28 N                         
2. 14 N
3. 50 N                       
4. 38 N 

Oil spreads over the surface of water whereas water does not spread over the surface of the oil, due to

1. Surface tension of water is very high

2. Surface tension of water is very low

3. Viscosity of oil is high

4. The viscosity of water is high

Cohesive force is experienced between 

1. Magnetic substances

2. Molecules of different substances

3. Molecules of same substances

4. None of these

The property utilized in the manufacture of lead shots is

1. Specific weight of liquid lead

2. Specific gravity of liquid lead

3. Compressibility of liquid lead

4. Surface tension of liquid lead
