    My results of part B shows that a penny can hold 21 drops of water on the top. This relates to adhesion since the penny that is copper is attracted to a different substance which is water. When the drops hit the penny‚ the adhesive force of the water and the penny keeps the water from falling off the sides. It also shows high cohesion since the water molecules are attracted to each other. In a water molecule it has a hydrogen bond of oxygen and hydrogen since they are attracted to one another. It

    proportions‚ forming a single homogeneous liquid. For example‚ when a large amount of alcohol is drunk‚ to reduce the harmful effects of it‚ water mixes with the ethanol to reduce its concentration and harmful effects on the body. Water also has high adhesion properties because of its polar nature. In biological cells and organelles‚ water is in contact with membrane and protein surfaces that are hydrophilic; that is‚ surfaces that have a strong attraction to water. The scientist Irving Langmuir observed
