Question

what is a product of waters surface tension? none of these water forms round beads insects sink through the surface of a pond water spreads out and takes up as much space as possible

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Surface tension causes water molecules at the surface to be pulled together, minimizing surface area. This results in water forming round beads as a sphere has the minimum surface - area - to - volume ratio. Insects can walk on the surface (not sink through) due to surface tension. Water spreading out is not a result of surface tension but rather factors like adhesion in some cases.

Answer:

Water forms round beads
