Yes. It is more specifically called water surface tension and it is the result of water's ability to form hydrogen bonds.
Tension does not have anything to do with evaporation.
The surface tension of water is increased for salted water.Sodium chloride increase the surface tension of water.
surface tension
yes
yeh a pond skidder!!!!!!!!!!! A Jesus Christ Lizard can walk on water. This happens because the water controls a force called 'surface tension' which pulls a stretchy 'skin' over the top.
The surface tension of water is higher than that of most other liquids. Water has a surface tension of 7.29 * 10-2 J/m2 at 20oC.
A needle can float on water due to surface tension. When the needle is carefully placed on the surface of the water, its weight is not enough to break the surface tension created by the water molecules, causing it to float.
The surface tension of water is due to cohesive forces between water molecules. Density does not directly affect surface tension, but impurities or additives can alter it. Essentially, the surface tension of water remains constant regardless of its density.
A water skipper is able to walk on water based on surface tension.
No, mercury has a higher surface tension.
well, technically they are hydrogen bonds b/c water is made up of H-bonds. The strong H bond forces on the inside of a pond are pulling the molecules on top downward w/o anything to pull it upwards creating a tension on the top of the water. This is also why it hurts so much when you land in a pool on your stomach
Yes, water temperature can affect surface tension on a penny. As water temperature increases, surface tension generally decreases. This means that with higher water temperature, the water is less likely to bead up and more likely to spread out on the penny, reducing the surface tension.
