The answer is cohesion. Adhesion is when molecules of different substances (an example dew on a leaf) are attracted to each other. And surface tension is a force that creates sort of a thin layer on top of water, so that some small things are able to stand on water. That is how water striders are able to do what they were named after, stride on water.
