The image above represents work of cohesion per unit area. To calculate work of cohesion per unit area, one essential parameter is needed and this parameter is Surface Tension of Particle (γ).
The formula for calculating the work of cohesion per unit area:
W = 2γ
Where:
W = Work of Cohesion per Unit Area
γ = Surface Tension of Particle
Let’s solve an example;
Find the work of cohesion per unit area when the surface tension of particle is 24.
This implies that;
γ = Surface Tension of Particle = 24
W = 2γ
That is, W = 2(24)
W = 48
Therefore, the surface tension of particle is 48 J.

Calculating the Surface Tension of Particle when the Work of Cohesion per Unit Area are Given
γ = W / 2
Where:
γ = Surface Tension of Particle
W = Work of Cohesion per Unit Area
Let’s solve an example;
Find the surface tension of particle when the work of cohesion per unit area is 40.

This implies that;
W = Work of Cohesion per Unit Area = 40
γ = W / 2
So, γ = 40 / 2
γ = 20
Therefore, the surface tension of particle is 20.
