I don't know if I've asked the right question, but here's what I want to know:
If I plunge my hand into a pool of water, which of the fundamental interactions is keeping the atoms in my hand separate from the atoms in the water?
I always thought it was the strong interaction, but then I learned electrons are leptons and don't have it. I hope you can see what I'm after here.
Also, what force keeps the electrons in their orbit?
