What does it mean to have a high surface tension

Asked by admin @ in Physics viewed by 276 People

Why does water have a high surface tension? (2 points) Hydrogen bonding keeps water molecules close together. Water is a liquid at room temperature. The lengths of the bonds in water molecules can change. Water molecules contain 18 electrons.

Answered by admin @


Answer: Because water contains hydrogen bonds.

Explanation: Despite being weak bonds, hydrogen bonds cause water to have what is called surface tension. Objects can float on water due to this.
