Water, as a polar molecule, has many interesting properties. Which of the following properties is most closely associated with polarity

Surface tension

Liquid at room temperature

Solvent of non-polar substances

Shape as a solid

all of the above.

The properties of water are:

1) polar molecules

2) regulates temperature

3) universal solvent

4) high surface tension

5) can exist in all three stages of matter

The Answer is surface tension.

The polarity of water molecules means that molecules of water will stick to each other. This is called hydrogen bonding. Polarity makes water a good solvent, gives it the ability to stick to itself (cohesion), stick to other substances (adhesion), and have surface tension (due to hydrogen bonding).
