Science Experiment - Suck It Up!
Updated: 28 Apr 2023
A science experiment which investigates the absorptive properties of various materials.
A science experiment which investigates the absorptive properties of various materials.
Different materials have the ability to suck up liquids. This is called ‘absorption’ and is a physical property of matter found in certain porous materials. Properties of absorptive materials can be measured by how much liquid they can absorb.
This Matter experiment allows students to investigate materials and their absorptive properties.
