The image above represents infinitesimal change in surface tension. To calculate infinitesimal change in surface tension, five essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Gas Constant (R), Temperature (T), Surface Excess or Absorption Density (Γ), Particle Diameter (d) and Activity of Adsorbate (ai).
The formula for calculating infinitesimal change in surface tension:
dγ = -RT.Γd In(ai)
Where:
dγ = Infinitesimal Change in Surface Tension | Gas Absorption
R = Gas Constant
T = Temperature
Γ = Surface Excess or Absorption Density
d = Particle Diameter
ai = Activity of Adsorbate
Let’s solve an example;
Find the infinitesimal change in surface tension when the gas constant is 11, the temperature is 21, the surface excess or absorption density is 12, the particle diameter is 14 and the activity of adsorbate is 18.
This implies that;
R = Gas Constant = 11
T = Temperature = 21
Γ = Surface Excess or Absorption Density = 12
d = Particle Diameter = 14
ai = Activity of Adsorbate = 18
dγ = -RT.Γd In(ai)
dγ = -(11)(21).(12)(14) In(18)
That is, dγ = (-231).(12)(14)(2.89)
dγ = (-231).(485.58)
dγ = -112169.54
Therefore, the infinitesimal change in surface tension is -112169.54 N/m.
