Pure water can roughly hold 0.073 grams per cm at 20 degree Celsius.Impurities can change the figures.
This year my teacher made us use a transparency and we dropped water, oil, alcohol, and i think it was water with salt ...not so sure... well then we recorded which one stood together and which one separated the fastest.....be sure to illustrate if this is a science fair project. hope i helped if not well sorry i tried: )______________________________________________Another way is to take a penny and for each type of liquid, count the number of drops that the penny can hold before the liquid's surface tension breaks.
To hold both wings in line with each other and to tension the entire aircraft.

Depends on the structural integrity of the deck.
250ml of water equals 8.45 US fluid ounces, so it is possible that a mug could hold 250ml, depending on the size of the mug of course.
A needle can float on water due to surface tension. When the needle is carefully placed on the surface of the water, its weight is not enough to break the surface tension created by the water molecules, causing it to float.
Small insects such can walk on water because their weight is not enough to penetrate the surface. A carefully placed small needle can be made to float on the surface of water even though it is several times as dense as water. If the surface is agitated to break up the surface tension, needle will quickly sink.
because water has a surface tension that likes to hold together. How much it takes to hold it together is based on what incline it is on. In this case, wave patterns are observed because the surface tension keeps a larger amount of water in one place, until the weight overcomes the surface tension, and it creates the wave pattern you see.
Surface tension can typically hold up to around 20-40 regular-sized paper clips on the surface of water before breaking. This limit can vary based on factors like the size and weight of the paper clips, as well as the quality of the water surface.

Surface tension, which is the cohesive force that allows water molecules to stick together, creating a "skin" on the surface that can support the weight of the water droplet.
for example, if drops of water are placed on the top of a penny, the surface tension is going to hold the drops on top of the penny. when the penny can hold no more, it will all overflow. make sense?
If you're asking why can't soda hold up a paper weight it's because it's surface tension is less than that of water. Sodas contain other elements, including salts, sugars and gas, which lessen the number of hydrogen bonds, which is stronger than the ionic-water or Van der Waals interactions that can occur. Purer water has more hydrogen bonds, which are much stronger.
A penny can hold water due to two properties: surface tension and cohesion. Surface tension causes the water molecules to stick together and form a dome-like shape on the penny's surface, while cohesion allows the water molecules to stick to each other and the penny, preventing the water from spilling over.
A spoon can hold more water than the level of its rim due to surface tension and cohesion properties of water molecules. These properties allow the water to form a convex meniscus above the rim of the spoon, effectively increasing the volume of water the spoon can hold. Additionally, the shape of the spoon allows for better distribution of the water's weight, preventing overflow.
it's called "surface tension". It is the property of the surface of a liquid which causes it to behave like an elastic sheet. This is why a "water strider" insect can skate across the surface of a pond without sinking into the water. It is also what causes a drop of water - the surface tension of the water pulls it into a ball.
The height of the water in a container affects the surface tension holding the water in place. If the height is too low, it may not be enough to overcome the adhesive forces of the water molecules, causing the water to spill when adding the penny. If the height is too high, the adhesive forces may be strong enough to hold the water with the penny even without surface tension.
