Describe all of the forces acting on the ice cream in the root beet float. Relate these forces to the fact that the ice cream is floating.

he root beer exerts a force on all sides of the ice cream. These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. ... The ice cream floats because the buoyant force is greater than the weight of the ice cream.

Explanation:

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
