The surface tension of most of the liquid decreases with rise in (a) viscosity of the liquid (b) diameter of capillary (c) temperature of the liquid (d) density of the liquid

Answer: (c). Surface tension depends on cohesive forces, which weaken as the temperature rises. So the answer is (c) temperature of the liquid.
