1 Surface Tension water molecules sticking together to form a skin on top of water
Figure 8a-3: The following illustration shows how water molecules are attracted to each other to create high surface tension. This property can cause water to exist as an extensive thin film over solid surfaces. In the example above, the film is two layers of water molecules thick.

2 Water Striders Surface Tension in action

3 Cohesion water drops sticking together because water molecules are polar

4 Adhesion water sticking to other surfaces

5 Capillary Action water moving up a material
