Surface tension is a property of a liquid to resist the external force. It is the result of cohesive forces between the molecules of the liquid.

The stronger the cohesive forces between the molecules of the liquid, the stronger is the surface tension.

Since methylated spirit has weaker cohesive forces than water, it will also have a weaker surface tension.

b. A data table

Step-by-step explanation:

We say that it is not a scientific model because we don't know what the table shows and because the table contains information. This information hasn't been turned into something visual, that we can call a model.
