Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: The contact angle between a solid and a liquid is a property of the material of the solid and liquid as well.
Statement-II: The rise of a liquid in a capillary tube does not depend on the inner radius of the tube.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsB
From the ascent formula, rise in capillary, 
Thus, rise of a liquid in a capillary tube depends on surface tension (T), density of liquid (
), contact angle (
) and inner radius of capillary
.
