Answer :

GinnyAnswer

Final answer:

Surface tension is the energy needed to increase a liquid's surface area, caused by cohesive forces between molecules. It allows objects denser than water to float.


Explanation:

Surface tension is the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid due to cohesive forces between molecules at the surface. It creates a 'skin' on the surface of liquids like water and allows objects denser than water to float. For example, insects can walk on water due to this property.
