. Which characteristic of water will allow a paperclip to remain floating on water when the paperclip is gently placed on top of the water?
1. adhesion
2. surface tension
3. solvent properties
4. nonpolar

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is surface tension.

Explanation:

The high surface tension helps the paper clip - with much higher density - float on the water. The cohesive forces between liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon known as surface tension. hope this helps :)
