Answer: -
Surface Tension
Explanation: -
Surface tension is cohesive force created as a result of hydrogen bonding, that enables a liquid drop to have a minimum surface area.
Due to it being cohesive, the water top surface is concave in nature, allowing us to hence slightly overfill a glass with water.
Due to surface tension, the surface of water behaves like a stretched membrane, allowing dense objects like a length wise steel needle to float on water.
Thus, the hydrogen bonding in water creates __surface tension__, a cohesive force that enables one to slightly overfill a glass with water or allows denser objects, such as a lengthwise steel needle, to float on water
To determine the number of cups of milk, we first calculate for the volume of the milk needed. Then, we use a conversion factor for the volume from cubic centimeter to cups. From literature, 1 cubic centimeter is equal to 0.0042 cup. We do as follows:
Volume of milk = ( 2.50 kg ) ( 1000 g / 1 kg ) / 1.03 g /cm^3 = 2427.18 cm^3
cups of milk = 2427.18 cm^3 ( 0.0042 cup / 1 cm^3 ) = 10.19 cups
We can use the dilution formula to find the volume of the diluted solution to be prepared
c1v1 = c2v2
Where c1 is concentration and v1 is volume of the concentrated solution
And c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of the diluted solution to be prepared
Substituting the values in the equation
15 M x 25 mL = 3 M x v2
v2 = 125 mL
The 25 mL concentrated solution should be diluted with distilled water upto 125 mL to make a 3 M solution
