True or False: Liquid oxygen should have a larger surface tension than liquid bromine (assuming T and P are the same for both liquids). False: Surface tension of liquids increase as Intermolecular Force strength increases. Both O2 and Br2 are non-polar molecules, and have only dispersion forces. Those dispersion forces are stronger for Br2, however, since it has many more electrons (70 vs. 16) than does O2.
Surface tension is a phenomenon in which the surface of a liquid, where the liquid is in contact with gas, acts like a thin elastic sheet. This term is typically used only when the liquid surface is in contact with gas (such as the air). If the surface is between two liquids (such as water and oil), it is called interface tension..
