Q: Surface tension comes from the fact that particles at the surface of a liquid do not experience interactions from all directions which leads to what on the surface?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Surface tension comes from the fact that particles at the surface of a liquid do not experience interactions from all directions, leading to an imbalance of forces on the surface. Surface tension is responsible for several well-known behaviors of liquids, including water. Liquids with high surface tension tend to bead up when present in small amounts ( - ball-ch10_s03_f06). Surface.

 Choices:

- degradation of forces

- floating particles

- waves

- imbalance of forces


A:
imbalance of forces
