Question

3. Why can a water spider walk
comfortably on the surface of still
water?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The force of surface tension balances the spider's weight, helping it to walk on water. Surface tension affects the top layer of water, causing it to behave like a stretched elastic sheet. It occurs because the attraction between water molecules is not balanced at the liquid surface
