Cheerios effect

Five paper clips cling to each other, supported on the water’s surface by surface tension. One of the clips has sunk to the bottom of the cup, showing that these paper clips normally do not float.

In fluid mechanics, the Cheerios effect is the phenomenon that occurs when floating objects that don't normally float attract one another. Wetting, an example of the "Cheerios effect," is when breakfast cereal clumps together or clings to the sides of a bowl of milk. It is named after the common breakfast cereal Cheerios and is due to surface tension. The same effect governs the behavior of bubbles on the surface of soft drinks.
