Surface tension.
Surface tension is the property that causes liquids to form spherical drops. This is due to the molecules at the surface of the liquid being more attracted to each other than to the surrounding air, causing them to minimize surface area and form a sphere.
There are approximately 20 drops in a milliliter for water-based liquids using a standard dropper. However, this can vary depending on the viscosity and surface tension of the liquid being used.
This phenomenon is called surface tension.
Those drops of water are called dew. Dew forms when the temperature of the surface cools down and reaches the dew point, causing water vapor in the air to condense and form small droplets.
Approximately 30 to 40 drops of water can fit on a quarter, depending on the size of the drops and the condition of the coin's surface.
It is surface tension.
Surface tension is the force that pulls liquids together to form drops when they fall. This force is due to the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules at the surface.
Surface Tension
Liquids with high surface tension, such as water, form spherical drops due to this property. Surface tension is the cohesive force that causes molecules at the surface of a liquid to be drawn inward, creating a spherical shape to minimize surface area.
Surface tension causes molecules to hold to themselves more tightly. Therefore high surface tension liquids, like pure water, will form a taller drop and low surface tension substances, like oil, will spread out and be flat.

cohesion/ cohesive forces
Small water drops are spherical in shape due to surface tension. Surface tension is a property of liquids that causes them to minimize their surface area, resulting in a spherical shape for small droplets as it is the shape that has the lowest surface area. This is why small water drops tend to form perfect spherical shapes.

The inherent property of any substance is to aggregate together, which is caused by Van der Waals' forces. These forces cause the molecules to be held together and create surface tension, in the case of liquids. When you drop water onto a surface, the water molecules adhere together due to holding those forces and try to come closer. Geometrically, a sphere has the greatest surface area to volume ratio, which is also the most stable shape for liquids to conform into. Thus, you get rounded drops or beads.
