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.

  • What's surface tension?

[tex] \large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}[/tex]

  • 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 :-

[tex] \boxed{ \boxed{ \sf\gamma = \frac{1}{2} . \frac{f}{l} }} \\ [/tex]

Here,

gamma = surface tension

f = force

l = length
