From what I read on the internet I found that increase in surface area that is in contact is offset by the reduction in pressure. What exactly does it mean?
This is what I understood from the it (but my understanding might be absurd ): does reduction in pressure mean that the "hills" or "irregularities" that are in contact become more pointy? As there is less pressure they don't feel pressed so that there is no reason for them to flatten?
If not please explain it in the molecular scale if possible.
Please and Thank You!
