Testing the effect of Acid on the ability of water to remain on a penny for Biology by Matt, Staci, Veronica, Melissa, and Michael

Baseline

Putting drops of wanter (pH 7) on a penny until surface tension breaks and the water spills of the penny.  Water is dropped onto the penny from a pipit suspended a few millimeters from the top of the water.
