The interior molecules are attracted to all the molecules around them, while the exterior molecules are attracted to only the other surface molecules and to those below the surface. This makes it so that the energy state of the molecules on the interior is much lower than that of the molecules on the exterior. Because of this, the molecules try to maintain a minimum surface area, thus allowing more molecules to have a lower energy state. This is what creates surface tension.

Surface tension allows things to float which are less dense than water. For example, organisms such as spiders can run across water due to the inter-molecular forces of the molecules. Surface tension also allows for the formation of water droplets that we see in nature.

The separation of oil and water is caused by the difference in surface tension of the two liquids.The upper cover of some tents is the rain protector but isn’t really resistant. When water is on it, the surface tension doesn’t allow the water to pass through the fine pores in the tent cover. But if you touch the cover while the water is on it, you break the surface tension and the water and the water slips through.

The tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize the surface area.

Chemists use water for most of the solvent needed in the lab. These solvents are used to make solutions that appear in labs and experiments.

This is useful because wherever water goes, either through the air, the ground, or our bodies, it takes along dear chemicals, minerals, and nutrients.

Water as a universal solvent has many real world applications such as making items such as rock candy, hand warmers, and soda.

Water is known as an universal solvent because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid.
