Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The force exerted to increase the surface area of acetone is to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

The atoms or molecules at the surface of the liquid are considered as a film. The atoms or molecules in bulk imply a force on the atoms or molecules at the surface of the liquid and tends to minimize the surface area of the liquid. This phenomenon is known as the surface tension of lithe quid.
