Surface tension is a physical property equal to the amount of force per unit area necessary to expand the surface of aliquid. It is the tendency of a fluid surface to occupy the smallest possible surface area. Surface tension is a principal factorin capillary action.
Surface tension forces are due to intermolecular forces between the liquid's molecules at the liquid's outer boundaries.
Examples of how it works :
The rounded shape of water droplets on the surface
Oil and water separate because of the tension between two dissimilar liquids.
Some insects and animals which are more dense than water walks across water without sinking Is due to surface tension
