Fill a glass with water above the rim. It forms a domed surface. Add a paper clip and watch it float, even though the paper clip is made of a metal that is denser than water. This is due to water's surface tension. Water has several very unique properties, like surface tension, cohesion, and adhesion because water

... is the property of hydrogen bonding that makes the water molecule. The way that this works is that a water molecule is a polar molecule. This is because the oxygen has a larger electronegative value than the hydrogen in the water molecule. This means that the oxygen gets a bigger division of the shared electrons than the hydrogen does. This gives oxygen a very high partial negative charge, and the hydrogen a very high partial positive charge. Because of these high partial charges on each end of the molecule, they're attracted to each other. This makes a strong type of intermolecular force called a hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond 'pulls' the water molecules towards each other. So when in the centre of a water molecule the hydrogen bonds go in every direction. But when they are on the outside of a mass of water they are attracted only by molecules inside the mass of water. This makes a layer over the surface of the water.
is polar and every water molecule electrically attracts the neighboring water molecules.
