So for interface P P1 P2 4 T …..(i) r2 P1

As excess pressure acts from concave to convex side, the
interface will be concave towards the smaller bubble and convex
towards larger bubble and if r is the radius of interface.

(2) Formation of a single bubble
(i) Under isothermal condition two soap bubble of radii ‘a’ and ‘b’ coalesce to form a single
bubble of radius ‘c’.
