Surface Tension of Sea Water Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Surface Tension of Sea Water = Surface Tension of Pure Water*(1+(3.766*10^(-4)*Reference Salinity)+(2.347*10^(-6)*Reference Salinity*Temperature in Degree Celsius))
γ_sw = γ_w*(1+(3.766*10^(-4)*S)+(2.347*10^(-6)*S*t))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Surface Tension of Sea Water - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - The Surface Tension of Sea Water is the property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of the sea water molecules.
Surface Tension of Pure Water - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - The Surface Tension of Pure Water is the property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of the Pure water molecules.
Reference Salinity - (Measured in Parts per Thousand) - Reference Salinity is defined as the total amount by weight of dissolved salts in a water body.
Temperature in Degree Celsius - (Measured in Kelvin) - The Temperature in Degree Celsius is the measure of the hotness or coldness on the celsius scale. Degree Celsius is a unit to indicate a difference or range between two temperatures.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Surface Tension of Pure Water: 72 Millinewton per Meter --> 0.072 Newton per Meter (Check conversion here)
Reference Salinity: 6.1 Parts per Thousand --> 6.1 Parts per Thousand No Conversion Required
Temperature in Degree Celsius: 53 Kelvin --> 53 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

γ_sw = γ_w*(1+(3.766*10^(-4)*S)+(2.347*10^(-6)*S*t)) --> 0.072*(1+(3.766*10^(-4)*6.1)+(2.347*10^(-6)*6.1*53))

Evaluating ... ...

γ_sw = 0.0722200352472

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0722200352472 Newton per Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0722200352472 ≈ 0.07222 Newton per Meter <-- Surface Tension of Sea Water
