Explanation:
Bubbles are round — spherical — because there is an attractive force called surface tension that pulls molecules of water into the tightest possible groupings. ... In a bubble, the inward surface-tension forces of the water film are exactly balanced by the outward-pushing pressure of the air inside.

a) Liquid drops : one consequences of surface tension is that free liquid drops and bubbles are spherical if effects of gravity can be neglected. you must have seen this clearly in small drops just formed in a high speed spray or in a shop bubbles blow, by most of us in the childhood.
