In a body of water, the surface tension caused by the attraction between water molecules is strong. Which of the following is a
consequence of this property? - Water is considered to be a universal solvent.
- Only a limited amount of solute can be dissolved in a sample of water.
- Objects with a higher density than water can be observed floating on water.
<span>Answer: Objects with a higher density than water can be observed floating on water
Water spider is one of the animals that can walk above the water. The legs of the spyder float because the force that it gives to the water surface is not higher than the surface tension, thus the water didn't break. Even though the spider density is higher than water, it could look like floating above the water.</span>
