  • Water likes to stick to itself, but under certain circumstances, it actually prefers to stick to other types of molecules. 
  • Adhesion is the attraction of molecules of one kind for molecules of a different kind, and it can be quite strong for water, especially with other molecules bearing positive or negative charges.
  • For instance, adhesion enables water to the surface of the glass.
  • The water molecules are more strongly attracted to the glass than they are to other water molecules (because glass molecules are even more polar than water molecules).
