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.
define coefficient of surface tension
The main factor is the strength of cohesion between molecules. For instance, water molecules have a slightly negative and a slightly positive end which makes them stick together like magnets. A molecule with more extreme positive and negative charges would have a stronger surface tension.
Each liquid hydrocarbon has a different surface tension.
Surface tension affects everyone's environment in many ways. Surface tension is the property of water that makes life to exist as we are accustomed. Surface tension also makes our body cells functional.
the surface tension has bonds, and the soap breaks those bonds, so if the soap water is put onto a surface.. it will slip off
A water strider can walk across the surface of a small pond.

Surface tension. It always tends to acquire minimum surface area thats why water droplets form spherical shape.
Surface tension is found in Liquid
define coefficient of surface tension
Mercury is the liquid with the strongest surface tension.

The inward force among the molecules of a liquid is Surface Tension
The surface tension of water is increased for salted water.Sodium chloride increase the surface tension of water.
Adding surfactants the surface tension decrease.
No, mercury has a higher surface tension.
