Which of the following is associated with liquid only and not for the gases?

The property of fluid which enables it to resist tensile stress is known as 

A wire 10  cm long is placed horizontally on the surface of water. It is gently pulled up with a force of $1.4 \times 10^{-2}$ N to keep it in equilibrium. The surface tension of water is

Property of fluid by which its own molecules are attracted is called 

Attractive forces of cell walls for water molecules is termed as

A piece of ice. With a stone frozen inside it, is floating in water contained in a beak. When the ice metls,the level of water in the beaker.

The surface tension and vapour pressure of water at $20^oC$ is 7.28$ \times10^{ -2 }$ N/m and $2.33 \times { 10 }^{ 3 }$ pa, respectively. What is the radius of the smallest spherical water droplet which can from without evaporating at $20^oC$ ?

Soldering of two metals is possible because of the property of:

 Work done in increasing the size of a soap bubble from a radius of $3\ cm$ to $5\ cm$ is nearly (Surface tension of soap solution$=0.03\ {Nm}^{-1}$):

If the resultant adhensive force between liquid and solid is smaller than the resultant cohesive then will_______
