What if it can be used like a cloud chamber? Made with a tint to show particle strikes .????? TreBert

Water tension proves how strong molecules hold on to each other. We know how to weaken this bond. Do we know how to make it stronger? Does this bond slow down water evaporation? Does this water film reflect light like a mirror? Does the water have to be very still to have water surface to create this film? Well its so thin and yet needs deep thinking.. TreBert

that thinking was done long ago, and you are not even close

Molecules in the liquid state experience strong intermolecular
attractive forces. When those forces are between like molecules, they
are referred to as cohesive forces. For example, the molecules of a
water droplet are held together by cohesive forces, and the especially
strong cohesive forces at the surface constitute surface tension.



When the attractive forces are between unlike molecules, they are said
to be adhesive forces. The adhesive forces between water molecules and
the walls of a glass tube are stronger than the cohesive forces lead to
an upward turning meniscus at the walls of the vessel and contribute to
capillary action.



The attractive forces between molecules in a liquid can be viewed as
residual electrostatic forces and are sometimes called van der Waals
forces or van der Waals bonds.


As I recall, this was covered in physical chemistry. pick up a text,
maybe you can learn by osmosis


ur a liar , liar pants on fire. When in the cohesive mode, the electro + gravto forces aling water molecules up in a strait line, causing this 'cohesive effect, which can also be evaporated by Pure Beet Juice, works great at sugar vs. H2O(eg) adhesion
