Tilt the wax paper in any direction, allowing the water droplet to move but not fall off the paper. Does the water droplet break as you move the wax paper?
Water and wax do not get along. Waxed paper pushes water away and does not absorb it. The surface tension of the water pulls it into a little round blob; these blobs, or drops, can slide around waxed paper because the paper does not absorb it.
hope it helps :)

Add to drops of food coloring into a glass of tap water. Do not stir the mixture. What happens to the food coloring in the water? Does it mix with thr water? If yes how? Answer: The food coloring mixes through the hot water faster than it mixes with the cold water. This is because in hot water, the water molecules have more energy and are moving faster than the molecules of cold water. This makes it easier for the dye to get mixed throughout the hot water.

Leave the mixture for five minutes. Then observe it again does the food coloring remain in its initial state in the water or does it completely mix with water? Answer:When placed into water, food coloring will begin to mix with the water. ... The food coloring in the room temperature water will take longer to mix with the water because the molecules are moving more slowly due to their decreased thermal energy.
