Does water have a relatively high or low surface tension?
MERCURY has a higher surface tension than water. This highest surface tension between liquids is 487 mN/m at 15 0C.
What does high surface tension cause water to do?
High surface tension causes water to behave as if its surface had an elastic membrane, which was stretched. Due to water's high surface tension, effects like tears of wine and rain water beading on a leaf or grass happen.
Why does low-surface-tension-liquids-clean-better than high-surface-tension-liquids?
Low surface tension means high wetting as it represents low contact angle. It is therefore very easy for a low surface tension water / liquid to wet the surface ( usually solid) and get rid of the dirty in a same way a surfactant does unlike a high surface tension liquid which can't wett the surface containing the dirty....

Does the pH of water remain exactly neutral because of the high surface tension of water?
The pH of water is not related to surface tension.
What is responsible for high surface tension and high specific heat in water?
elfuichee

What is the reason the high surface tension of water?
The reason behind the high surface tension of water is hydrogen bonds. This very strong bond enables small insects to walk on the surface of water.

Does water have a low surface tension?
Water has a relatively high surface tension compared to other liquids, due to hydrogen bonding.
Does the pH of water remain exactly neutral because of the high surface tension of water?
The pH of water is not related to surface tension.
Which solution would provide the maximum support for a water strider which can move on the surface of a liquid?
A maximum support is offered by a liquid with a high surface tension.
What is responsible for high surface tension and high specific heat in water?
elfuichee
What causes the high surface tension and low vapor pressure of water?
Hydrogen bonding causes the inward force that minimizes the surface area of water, and the tendency of water molecules escaping this bond to become vapor is slim and/or slow, thus creating it's low pressure.
What special property of liquid is shown when an insect walks on the surface of water?
A high surface tension
What do cohesion and surface tension have in common with reference to water?
Between water molecules a big cohesion force exist; this is the cause of the high surface tension of water.
