Ice melting from water. Nothing has changed except the state of matter.
<span>Electronegativity is the property of an element that measures the
ability of it to attract and form electron bonds. The trend in the periodic
table in terms of electronegativity decreases from right to left and from top
to bottom. In the case of period 4, the element with the highest electronegativity
is bromine. </span>

Answer: C. High surface tension
Explanation:
Water has high specific heat as it require high heat to raise the temperature of 1 g of water through
.
Surface tension is the net downward force acting on the surface of liquids due to the cohesive nature of liquids.
Water molecules are bonded by strong hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom making it polar. Thus water molecules present on the surface are strongly attracted by the molecules present below the surface and thus act as a stretched membrane.
The surface acquires a minimum surface are and thus acquire a spherical shape.
