      A viscosity Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B density Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C polarity Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D surface tension Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Surface tension is responsible for the shape of liquid droplets. Although easily deformed, droplets of water tend to be pulled into a spherical shape by the cohesive forces of the surface layer. In the absence of other forces, including gravity, drops of virtually all liquids would be approximately spherical.
