Which of the following property of water can be used to explain the spherical shape of rain droplets?
(i) Viscosity
(ii) Surface tension
(iii) Critical phenomena
(iv) Pressure
This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
option (ii) surface tension
Surface tension minimises the surface area of the liquid and at minimum surface area, the liquid is in its the lowest energy state and hence most stable. Spherical shape of rain droplets has minimum surface
