Explain the surface tension of liquids and the factors affecting it.

Surface tension is a phenomenon resulting from cohesive forces between liquid molecules at the interface between the liquid and its surroundings. It's the measure of the energy required to increase the surface area of a liquid by a unit amount.

The cohesive forces between liquid molecules cause them to attract each other, minimizing the surface area to attain a state of lower potential energy. This gives rise to ____ ________ _____ __________ ________ ____ _____ ________ _____ ___ ____.
