Why do small pieces of camphor dance on the surface of water?

Answers

Answered by preetnios

A camphor particle (about 1 mm cube) 'dances' and moves on water surface. This is due to surface tension differential.

This decreases the surface tension of water around the camphor particle. So water moves from the region of high surface tension to the region of low surface tension.
