Surface tension .
is decreased by hydrogen bonding

causes beads of water to spread out

may be increased by detergents

is the inward force which tends to minimize the surface area of a liquid

During metamorphic processes, increased pressure and temperature can affect the of minerals in rock. rocks subjected to very high pressure are typically than others because mineral grains are squeezed together, and the atoms are more closely packed. during metamorphic processes, water facilitates the transfer of ions between and within minerals, which can the rate at which metamorphic reactions take place. the growth of new minerals within a rock during metamorphism has been estimated to be about per million years. metamorphism is commonly associated with convergent plate boundaries, where two plates move toward each other. during contact metamorphism, a large intrusion will contain thermal energy and will cool much more slowly than a small one. metamorphosed sandstone is known as the metamorphic rock made from metamorphosed shale, was once used to make blackboards for classrooms.

When balancing a chemical equation:

When hydrochloric acid reacts with potassium hydroxide solution, the following reaction occurs. hcl (aq) + koh (aq) h2o (l) + kcl (aq) the reaction gives off heat energy, so it is an reaction.
