Why does soap cake sink in water but soap cake in a plastic plate float?
Water striders have structures on their leg surfaces that trap air and hence increase the buoyancy of the leg such that the whole insect can float on water. Soap molecules have two ends, one end is hydrophilic (water attracting) while the other end is hydrophobic (not water attracting). Hydrophilic molecules tends to stick to other hydrophilic molecules and hence do not stick to hydrophobic molecules as much. The hydrophobic molecules also tends to be attracted to other hydrophobic molecules. Water does not intrude into the air filled structures on water strider legs because the legs themselves are also hydrophobic. Water does not stick to the surface of the legs but the hydrophobic end of the soap molecule does. The hydrophobic end of the soap molecules replace the air trapped on the surface of the strider legs while the hydrophilic (water attracting) end completes the bridging of water to the strider leg surface making the strider leg also hydrophilic and losing its buoyancy.

How can a water strider effectively walk on water?
A water strider can effectively walk on water due to its long, thin legs and the surface tension of the water. The water strider's legs are covered in tiny hairs that help distribute its weight and prevent it from breaking the water's surface tension. This allows the water strider to stay on top of the water and move quickly across its surface.
Why can a water strider walk on water?
A water strider can walk on water because of its small size and the surface tension of water. The water strider's long, thin legs distribute its weight evenly, allowing it to stay on the surface without breaking through.
