What is the hypothesis of this science project? What does the experiment aim to prove?
The hypothesis of this project is that you might want to know how many drops of water can fit into a penny or any other type of coin.

Instructions:
First, install the water in the eye dropper. Then place the penny in a flat place. Third, try to fit as many drops of water as you can until the drops of water fall out of the penny.

Other comments or suggestions:
I tried it so many times and the highest number of drops that can fit into the penny is 20.
