Surface tension is a contractive tendency of the 
surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an 
external force. Surface tension is an important 
property that markedly influences the ecosystem.
•Surface tension is 
exposed, for example, any 
time an object or insect 
(e.g. water striders) that is 
denser than water is able 
to float or run along the 
water surface.
Forces acting on liquid
•The cohesive forces among liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon of 
surface tension. 
•In the bulk of the liquid, each molecule is pulled equally in every direction by neighboring 
liquid molecules, resulting in a net force of zero. 
•The molecules at the surface do not have other molecules on all sides of them and 
therefore are pulled inwards. 
•This creates some internal pressure and forces liquid surfaces to contract to the minimal 
area. Surface tension is responsible for the shape of liquid droplets. 
•Although easily deformed, droplets of water tend to be pulled into a spherical shape by 
the cohesive forces of the surface layer. 
• In the absence of other forces, including gravity, drops of virtually all liquids would be 
approximately spherical. The spherical shape minimizes the necessary "wall tension" of the 
surface layer according to Laplace's law.
Effects of surface tension
Water striders stay atop liquid surface due to surface 
tension
Paper clip floats on water due to surface tension
Water beading on a leaf
Water dripping from a tap
Tears of wine
Water drops attain spherical shape due to surface 
tension
Thank you
