Effect of Temperature on Surface Tension

What is the Effect of Temperature on Surface Tension ?

The surface tension of liquid is generally decreases with increase of temperature and becomes zero at critical temperature. The decrease in surface tension with increase of temperature is due to the fact that with increase of temperature, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases and hence intermolecular attraction decreases.
