You place the water glass on the right of the plate in the "corner" of the place setting.
When you place a lime on a glass of water, the lime releases its juice into the water, adding flavor and a hint of citrus to the drink.
When you put a drop of food coloring into a glass of water, the water will turn that color.
One way to turn a glass full of water upside down without spilling it is to place a piece of cardboard or a small plate over the mouth of the glass, then flip the glass upside down while holding the plate/cardboard in place. Once the glass is upside down, carefully remove the plate/cardboard to reveal the water remaining in the glass.
When a glass of water is turned upside down, the water does not fall out due to the presence of air pressure pushing against the water, creating a vacuum inside the glass. This vacuum holds the water in place, creating a seal that prevents the water from spilling out.
Surface Tension
The water glass typically goes on the right side of the place setting. It is placed above the dinner knife and to the right of the wine glass, following the traditional table setting guidelines.
Place the jug in a warm room until the ice has thawed. Or, place the jug in a microwave and use the defrosting settings. Don't stand the jug in very hot water, as the glass may shatter.
Using a glass of water, you can demonstrate both principles. 1. Place a spoon halfway submerged in the water. Note that when you look through the side surface of the water, the spoon appears to be bent, or disjointed, at the surface of the water. This is due to refraction of the light passing through the water to your eye. 2. Place the glass of water several inches in front of a white background. place a bright a light source in front of the glass/background. Note that the area behind the glass is not as brightly lit as the rest of the background. This is because the light passing the water is dispersed and fewer Photons/Area are hitting the background. That is to say, there is less light density behind the glass where the light was dispersed. Note that the opposite effect (brighter behind the glass) can occur, if the glass of water acts as a "Focusing lens" due to its shape!

Water is able to stick to the side of glass due to adhesion, which is the attractive force between water molecules and the molecules of the glass surface. This is also aided by the polar nature of water molecules, which allows them to form hydrogen bonds with the molecules in the glass, creating surface tension that holds the water in place.
Water droplets form on the outside of a glass of cold water when warm, humid air comes into contact with the cold surface of the glass, causing the air to cool and reach its dew point. This leads to condensation of water vapor in the air, forming droplets on the outside of the glass.
If you are talking about the putty that holds old window glass in place, glazing compound. For a wood frame, glazing points, holds the glass in place and then the compound is applied at a 45deg angle for water run off.
