Adhesion is when a molecule attracts to a different substance. An example of this is when one end of a piece of paper towel is dipped into a glass of water. They water will climb up the fibers of the paper.

Adhesion, the clinging together of different substances, is obvious in many daily activities:

  • Paint stays on your walls.
  • Water adhering to your skin makes it wet.
  • Bubble gum sticks to almost anything dry.
  • Peanut butter sticks to the roof of your mouth.
  • Tape connects torn papers (by adhering both sections to its strong plastic backing).
