Class Pharmaceutical Chemistry
Liquids
Intermolecular forces are strong enough to contain the molecules to a
particular volume
Molecules move around freely
Are fluid
Unable to expand or contract huge amounts
Surface tension measures resistance of liquid to the increase of its surface
area
Adopts shape with minimum surface area
Molecules touching the container, experience forces between them as well
as adhesive forces with the container wall
Capillary Action
Upward movement of water against downwards gravity
Adhesive forces of water to glass are higher than gravity, forcing a rise in
water level
Viscosity
Liquid resisting flow
Higher the viscosity, the liquid pours more slowly
