The wettability of a surface by a liquid depends primarily on:

(2013)

Angle of contact between the surface and the liquid
Viscosity
Surface tension
Density

Solution:

Wettability directly depends on the angle of contact. If the angle is acute, the liquid wets the solid; if it is obtuse, it does not wet the solid.
