  • What's surface tension?


\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

  • Okay, so surface tension is the energy which is required to increase the surface area of a liquid due to intermolecular forces.
  • The formula for surface tension is :-


\boxed{ \boxed{ \sf\gamma = (1)/(2) . (f)/(l) }} \\

Here,

gamma = surface tension

f = force

l = length

Answer:


\huge\boxed{Answer\hookleftarrow}

Surface tension could be defined as the property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of the water molecules.
