Tear off a small, flat sheet of waxed paper. Use the pipette to dispense a drop of water on the waxed paper. Now, dry the pipett
e, and use it to dispense a drop of oil on the waxed paper next to the water drop. Be sure the two drops are not touching. Compare and describe the appearance of both drops.
When comparing the drops of oil and water, one thing I noticed was the shape. The water drop was more defined, whereas the drop of oil began to spread and was much flatter. This may be due to the waxy material, and how both oil and water react to the wax.
