Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What is the Unit of Surface Tension? The SI unit of Surface Tension is Newton per Meter or N/m.
Detailed explanation-2: -For this reason the surface tension is defined as ‘the amount of force (Nm) necessary to expand the surface (m2) of a liquid by one unit’. Therefore, the surface tension is measured in N/m (Nm/m2 = N/m). Ocationally, the surface tension is given in dyn/cm.
Detailed explanation-3: -The SI unit of Surface Tension is Newton/meter (N/m).
Detailed explanation-4: -Dyne/cm is the CGS unit of surface tension.
Detailed explanation-5: -Surface tension is represented by the symbol (alternatively or T) and is measured in force per unit length.
