Question

Define surface tension briefly, in simple language. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

the attractive force exerted upon the surface molecules of a liquid by the molecules beneath that tends to draw the surface molecules into the bulk of the liquid and makes the liquid assume the shape having the least surface area is known as surface tension

Answer 2

Answer:

Surface tension is an effect where the surface of a liquid is strong. ... This property is caused by the molecules in the liquid being attracted to each other (cohesion), and is responsible for many of the behaviours of liquids. Surface tension has the dimension of force per unit length, or of energy per unit area.
