Angle of contact of a liquid with a solid depends onA. solid onlyB. li

1.	Angle of contact of a liquid with a solid depends onA. solid onlyB. liquid onlyC. both solid and liquidD. orientation of the solid surface in liquid
Answer» Correct Answer - C Angle of contact is defined as the angle inside the liquid between the tangent to the solid surface and the tangent to the liquid surface at the point contact. It depends on nature of liquid and solid in contact.
