Apaper clip can stay on the surface of a sample of water because of water's strong surface tension. what is the cause of this surface tension? (hint: review question 6)
question 6: why are water molecules attracted to each other? it is neutral. because of the way oxygen and hydrogen are bonded together, water has an area of positive charge and an area of negatative charge. this makes water a polar molecule. because of water's polarity, water molecules are attracted to each other.
