The origin of the surface tension The bond between the molecules of
the homogenous material forces called the forces of molecular
attraction (the forces of cohesion) working on the cohesion of the
molecules of this material each other.

the energy difference of surface and in-volume molecules is known as


the surface energy.3

Surface energy is the work per unit area done by the force that creates
the new surface.

2/

The coefficient of surface tension of a liquid is the force acting in the


surface of the liquid at right angles to a line of unit length in the surface
of the liquid. Its unit (n/m)
