I know it's something to do with its molecular structure
OpenStudy (aaronq):
Surface tension is dependent on the interactions of molecules with their neighbours - these interactions are named "intermolecular forces", IMF. What type of IMFs do water molecules have?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
it is because of the hydrogen bond in water. H+ and OH- ions in H2O are partially polar and cause a relatively strong intermolecular force all over the liquid. this why it is liquid unlike its gaseous family members.
