MCQ
A liquid does not wet the solid surface if angle of contact is
- A$0$
- Bequal to $45^{\circ}$
- Cequal to $60^{\circ}$
- ✓greater than $90^{\circ}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
greater than $90^{\circ}$
d
If angle of contact is greater than $90^{\circ},$ then liquid will not wet the wall of container.
If angle of contact is greater than $90^{\circ},$ then liquid will not wet the wall of container.
