Explain why is hot soup more tasty than the colder one?
(N/A) The surface tension of a liquid decreases as its temperature increases.
Because the hot soup has lower surface tension,it spreads more easily over a larger surface area of the tongue.
This allows the soup to come into contact with a greater number of taste buds,which enhances the perception of its flavor,making it taste better than cold soup.
