This question has Statement-1 and Statement -2. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.
Statement 1 : A capillary is dipped in a liquid and liquid rises to a height h in it. As the temperature of the liquid is raised, the height h increases ( if the density of the liquid and the angle of contact remain the same)
Statement 2 : Surface tension of a liquid decreases with rise in its temperature.
Statement 1 is true, Statement -2 is flase
Statement- 1 is false, Statement -2 is true
Statement- 1 is true, Statement -2 is false.
Statement -1 is true
Assertion is incorrect but the reason is correct.
We know that,
As the temperature is raised, the surface tension (T) decreases.
As a result, the capillary raise (h) also decreases if density (e) and contact angle (θ) in unaltered.
