between the stick and water
A glow stick will generally glow brighter in room temperature water compared to cold water. The chemical reaction that produces the light in a glow stick is temperature-dependent; warmer temperatures increase the reaction rate, resulting in a brighter glow. Cold water slows down this reaction, leading to a dimmer light output.
Water doesn't stick to wax because there is no adhesion meaning the molecules don't stick to the wax, but they stick to each other, also known as hydrogen bonding. This causes the water to bead up and take up the least surface space it can. They are attracted to groups on a hydrophilic surface (water-loving) such as glass.
