Does orange juice have the same surface tension as gasoline?
No, orange juice has a higher surface tension than gasoline. Surface tension is the force that causes the surface of a liquid to contract and resist external forces. It is caused by the cohesive forces between molecules at the surface of the liquid. Orange juice contains more dissolved solids, such as sugars and acids, than gasoline. The presence of these dissolved solids disrupts the cohesive forces between water molecules, weakening the surface tension of orange juice. As a result, orange juice has a lower surface tension than water and a much lower surface tension than gasoline.
