Because of its molecule's cohesive nature, surface tension has the quality to resist an external force.
Surface tension is simply a property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force.
If the intermolecular forces are stronger further results in higher surface tension. For example; water has a high surface tension resulting in strong dipole intermolecular forces. Another example is oil. Oil has a low surface tension resulting in lower dipole intermolecular forces.
Temperature is inversely proportional to Surface tension. Therefore, surface tension increases as the temperature decreases.
