C) produce additional ER. D) undergo cell division. E) produce replacement lysosomes. 20) Rough endoplasmic reticulum A) contains ribosomes for protein synthesis. B) creates an enormous surface area for cell metabolism C) contains a compartment to transfer and modify products of metabolism D) all of the above 21) The function of mitochondria is
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.
Table 1 lists values of Î³ for some liquids. For the insect of Figure 2(a), its weight w is supported by the upward components of the surface tension force: w=Î³LsinÎ¸, where L is the circumference of the insectâs foot in contact with the water. Figure 3 shows one way to measure surface tension. The liquid film exerts a force on the movable wire in an attempt to reduce its surface area. The magnitude of this force depends on the surface tension of the liquid and can be measured accurately. Surface tension is the reason why liquids form bubbles and droplets.
